~ Happy New Year 2012 ~

Welcome to everyone transitioning from family vouchered respite to Employer of Record (EOR) with Respite, Inc. The process to change over is easy and once the required forms have been recieved and your respite worker established in the payroll system, only timesheets need to be submitted to issue paychecks to the person you've designated. Remember, you have a choice of service providers and can request Respite, Inc. as the agency that will meet your respite needs.

We're now in the first month of the third quarter of fiscal year 2011-2012. Please remember that if you use more hours than provided in your respite authorization per month the available balance is reduced more quickly. For instance, if your authorization is for 24 hours per month, but you submit for the maximum of 30 per month for a total of 90 in a quarter, you've used six additional hours each month, depleting hours that would have been available toward the end of the authorization. This is why we encourage everyone to use the number of hours allotted each month and that timesheets be turned in within 30 days of service. Contact us if you have questions about usage or balances.
