Full text of Idaho Idaho Statutes § 39-3520 — Application for certification, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 39-3520. Application for certification
(1) An application for certification shall be made to the department on forms provided by the department and shall contain such information as the department reasonably requires, including, at a minimum, fingerprinting and a background check clearance through the department, a list of individuals living in the home, and payment of an application fee if charged.
(2) Following receipt of a completed application, the department shall conduct an initial certification study to determine the capability of the care provider to operate a certified family home. In the event the department establishes, prior to conducting an initial certification study, that a cause of denial exists pursuant to rules promulgated pursuant to this chapter, the department may choose to deny the application for certification without conducting or completing an initial certification study.
(3) Failure of the applicant to cooperate with the department in the application process may result in the department terminating the application. Failure to cooperate means that the applicant does not make the application fee payment within six (6) months of the date of the invoice or does not submit to the department the completed application materials and information in the form requested by the department within twelve (12) months of paying the application fee. An applicant whose application has been terminated may reapply for certification.
