The household’s provider must be licensed (including military, tribal and out-of-state), self-declaration, or an approved relative provider. The license must be current, and have an expiration date later than the date of CCAP application.

If a provider is dual licensed, through the state and the tribe, payment will be issued based on the state license.

CCAP will make payment back to the first of the month in which the provider’s license is effective.

Provider’s may appeal a license denial. Payment for CCAP cannot be made during the appeal process as the provider is not licensed. If the provider wins the appeal, CCAP will make payment back to the effective date of the provider license.

If a CCAP applicant requests child care for a prior month and the provider was not licensed in that prior month, payment cannot be made to that provider for that month.

Ongoing

In an ongoing case where there is more than one provider and one of the provider(s) is no longer licensed the provider must be removed from the certificate effective the month following the month of expiration.

If the provider license expires during the eligibility period, payment can only be up to the expiration date. Any care provided following expiration date cannot be paid. Providers are expected to enter billed amounts in the Provider SSP to include only days in which they are licensed. Verification of attendance can be requested for any service month when payment is requested, and a provider’s license expires.

If the provider is reinstated during the month of expiration, payment can be made for the entire month.

If a child care provider’s license is suspended during the certificate period, CCAP will not make payment effective the date of suspension.

If a provider is issued an ‘Intent to Revoke’, CCAP can continue to make payment until the revocation is final.

NOTE: Providers may appeal a revocation or suspension. When a provider files an appeal, CCAP can continue to pay the provider during the course of the appeal.
