@Mariela I will do that today!!! Thank you!!
Mines took 2 1/2 weeks
@Shatiana Durante crazy!!! Ugghhh money is so tight too!
I went to my center because I was having the same problem but I was told that they don’t accept them electronically you have to bring the papers into your center for them to send you a placement notice in the mail
It’s wild how the information people get can vary so much! I work with the childcare union and we’re in direct contact with the NYC Childcare Voucher Processing Unit. Unless you have a social worker who can access the system or someone directly in the office, the processing time is typically 6–8 weeks. Even if you bring it in person, it will just go into the same pile and be processed in the usual order.
@Mariela I wonder why mine is taking so much longer then…
@Shatiana Durante HRA centers know about Acs vouchers?? I'm trying to navigate the system myself lol
Call and find out - it could be something was filled out wrong
@Mel yes that’s how I was able to get my voucher
So I called . Was on hold over an hour. Apparently they just didn’t send it in. So the processing never end started. They did receive it from the daycare director but then they just stopped for no reason. She said this is happening a lot and sent it through and to check back in a week. So annoying. Worse because the director said she sent in many that week along with mines. I’ll have to inform her in case other parents are waiting also
When i applied took nearly 4 months
Took me 4 weeks to get mine
Hello , about 6-8 weeks, you should call the hotline number at +1 (212) 835-7610 and ask the status of the voucher
