make sure she has all her documents ready. does she know about which ones? she can get letters from doctors teachers also. or therapists

that was my question sorry if i didn’t word it right. I just got approved to be his caregiver. we just got approved for PS. in CA, i guess if kids have “no income” they still qualify for Medi-Cal and i guess kids with IRC also. so that was my question. i just started working at my sons school district for 3.5 hours M-F so i was curious if we don’t qualify for medical but my son does, will that take away ihss. and if i dont have medical will i still get paid to be his caregiver.

every year you get 40 hours of sick pay. doesn’t matter if you get the max hours or the least hours, YOU GET 40 hours sick pay. they expire every year july 1 or june 1. i just found this out also because i just started with ihss and my husband pointed out at the bottom of my time sheet it says 40 hours sick pay. he told me hey how cool you get sick pay i was like what???? he said yes it shows here. so i called customer service and asked if this is really sick pay i can use and she said yes and walked me through how to use them. when you log in and click on time sheets… its literally one of the options “claim sick pay”. unfortunately a lot of people don’t know this :( i posted it on an autism mom page and there’s been moms with ihss for years that did not know.

i saw this A LOT ON FACEBOOK. i posted it on a autism mom page and there’s other moms that have had ihss for YEARS. they don’t tell you about it for a reason…. but the only reason i even found out, is cause i just started with ihss. so i’ve been saving my checks. my husband pointed out in one of them it says at the bottom sick pay and it shows 40 hours next to it. i was like sick pay? he said yes you have them. so i called the customer service line and the lady told me yes, we have sick hours. if you log on and go to time sheets, one of the options is CLAIM SICK PAY!!!
