What if I disagree with the decision of the administrator?

If you disagree with the decision, you should discuss the matter with the administrator. All applicants have the right to request a Fair Hearing, which would be before a Board composed of individuals not involved in deciding whether you are eligible for assistance. If you would like a Fair Hearing, you must request it in writing within five working days of receiving your decision.
