Direct Deposit for IHSS Providers Required July 1, 2022
Due to a change in State law, effective July 1, 2022, In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) providers will be required to receive their paychecks by direct deposit. With direct deposit, the provider�s IHSS paycheck is deposited directly into his/her checking or savings account or onto a pay card of his/her choice, instead of being mailed to the provider through the U.S. Postal Service. A reloadable pay card can be used for direct deposit and to make purchases and withdrawals. For additional information, providers should contact their local Department of Aging and Adult Services � Public Guardian (DAAS-PG) offices.

Electronic Visit Verification (EVV)
In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) providers and recipients are required to submit and approve timesheets electronically through the Electronic Services Portal (ESP) or the Telephone Timesheet System (TTS).
