(PROVIDER APPLICANT NAME)
the person you chose to be your IHSS provider, was ineligible because he/she had been convicted of a
disqualifying crime in the last 10 years. The notice explained that if you wanted him/her to be your
provider, even though he/she had been convicted of a disqualifying crime, you could submit a signed
request for a provider waiver to the county/Public Authority (PA)/Non-Profit Consortium (NPC) IHSS
office.
On _____________, the county/PA/NPC IHSS program office received an invalid request

waiver request to be your provider unless he/she is:
•
Your parent, guardian or person having legal custody (if you are a minor), or
•
Your conservator, spouse or registered domestic partner (if you are an adult).
County/PA/NPC records show that _______________________________ is NOT your parent, guardian

or a person having legal custody (if you are a minor), or your conservator, spouse or registered
domestic partner (if you are an adult). If he/she IS your parent, guardian or a person having legal
custody (if you are a minor), or if he/she is your conservator, spouse or registered domestic partner
(if you are an adult), call your IHSS worker at the number shown at the top of this notice.
