Hi I inquired about being a caregiver for my disabled father in July of 2019. They accepted and a worker came out the beginning of October 2019 to evaluate my dad. He was then approved and we were supposed to start receiving money that following month. We did not receive anything for November 2019 December 2019 or January 2020.. we received a payment finally in February 2020 and then nothing else in March, April, May, June, July, August, or September of 2020..Now all of a sudden a new worker has contacted me stating our old worker had retired and she was our new worker🤔 I'm thinking huh? No explanation or anything as to why I have been taking care of my dad out of my pocket nothing just, I'm your new worker and go on there and complete the logs...which by the way only go from October 22, 2020 Until Today November 9, 2020. So I'm confused am I owed money.? And if so who do I contact or what do I do? Please help I feel like this was totally unfair to me. Thank u in advance

Who is paying you? Did you speak to them about the payment schedule? Is this from the state or a veteran program?

Can you please clarify for us? Thanks.

The person is a caseworker. You need to bring to their attention that you have not been paid as you should have been and you need to know why. That you feel you are owed back pay. Be assertive. This caseworker may have no idea that last caseworker seemed to have dropped the ball. COVID probably had something to do with it too. Also, was there something u should have done that u were not aware of?

To be honest, you should have contacted someone when the first payment didn't show up. If the caseworker is no help, there is always a supervisor above them.

If you were already approved and received some compensation from the state and then they stopped, then yes you are probably owed money. What do you mean when you say you're paying out-of-pocket for? If it's buying him supplies for his care or paying his non-related to care bills, then no they will not pay for that.
