If my appeal for protective supervision is denied, how long before I can apply again?
Published: Jan. 10, 2025
If you’re denied IHSS protective supervision, you go through the IHSS appeal process, and you're still denied, you may wonder what your options are.
One option is to hire an attorney and go to the superior court to challenge the denial.
If you don't want to pursue services in court, you can choose to wait until the next year or your child is a little older. Keep in mind that the next time you apply, you have to show that the situation is worse in order for protective supervision to be granted.
