f. Applications Assigned to the Wait List

The CCAP administrator shall maintain a wait list if sufficient funding is not available to keep the program open for all priority groups. If a family meets the eligibility requirements for the program but funding is not available for the parent’s priority group, the family shall be assigned to the wait list unless the wait list is closed pursuant to section 17b-749-10 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies. Parents and their providers shall be notified if the family is placed on the wait list.

If the commissioner chooses to close the wait list to some or all priority groups, applicants who fall into priority groups to whom the wait list is closed shall be denied. Action to close the wait list shall not be subject to an administrative hearing.
