There are a few steps in becoming an IHSS Provider. The Public Authority website contains all the necessary information. Please go to the "Provider Enrollment" page on the website to enroll. If you do not have a computer or smartphone, we recommend going to a location that offers computer access such as your local library or Mother Load Job Training.

DOJ results are fairly quick, usually within 5 business days. There could be many reasons for a delay in the Public Authority receiving the results.  Below are some of the reasons that have caused delays.

• Living in multiple states 
• Having a criminal background (regardless of convictions or not)
• Fingerprint processing issues (difficulty in reading the prints received)
• Multiple names/aliases 

You will be contacted as soon as we receive the results.

All payroll and direct deposit questions go through payroll services. Please call IHSS payroll at (209) 754-6439.
