An individual may appeal an adverse action of the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) by submitting a signed written request to the county social service office within 30 days from the date of the notice of adverse action. An individual is not required to use SFN 162, Request for Hearing when filing an appeal. However, the individual’s request for a hearing must be made in writing and signed. When a written request for a hearing is received within 10 days from the date of the notice of adverse action, benefits must continue unless the individual requests to have their benefits reduced.

 

Actions which are appealable include but are not limited to:

1. Denial of CCAP benefits
2. Reduction in CCAP benefits
3. Closing of CCAP case
4. Overpayment of benefits paid
5. Any action imposed against a household except when the sole issue is one of state or federal law requiring automatic benefit adjustments for classes of recipients (unless the reason for an individual appeal is incorrect benefit computation)
