FAQ
To be eligible for IHSS, an individual must be Medi-Cal eligible or must be receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits. The IHSS program provides payment for non-medical in-home care for qualified individuals who are unable to remain safely in their homes without this assistance.
The applicant income limit is equivalent to 138% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). While this figure increases annually in January, for California Medicaid, the income limits increase each April. Effective 4/1/24, the monthly income limit for the IHSS program for a single applicant is $1,732.
For example, California requires a criminal clearance for anyone applying to work as a caregiver and excludes individuals from consideration who have misdemeanor or felony convictions for which they have not received an exemption.
Of those who do get approved, it can take anywhere from two weeks to several months to finally receive benefits. This is due to the meticulous amount of paperwork involved, as well as the process of the case worker assessment, background check, and other procedures.
