If you have multiple IHSS Providers, you can use the Workweek Agreement to show the weekly work hours for each Provider. The Agreement is shared with your Providers. To use the Agreement:
- Download Form SOC 2256: English | Español | 中文 | русский
- Make sure the total number of hours in the Agreement corresponds to your maximum weekly hours. You can always adjust an IHSS Provider's weekly work schedule, as long as they don't exceed their maximum weekly hours.
- Send the completed and signed SOC 2256 to:
HSA, Attn: N3AX
P.O. Box 7988
San Francisco, CA 94120.
Learn more about Workweek Scheduling or call your IHSS Social Worker for help.
To get approval from the County for your Provider to work additional hours or overtime, contact your IHSS Social Worker.
