(2) An applicant must submit a non-refundable filing fee with the application. For a registered family child care home the application fee is $30. The applicant may submit documentation that the applicant’s income is below 100% of the Federal Poverty Level, the fee may be reduced or waived. This fee is required with: (a) Initial application; (b) Renewal application; (c) Re-opening of a home registration after a lapse in registration; or (d) A change in location. (3) A registered family child care must complete and submit an application to CCLD at least: (a) 45 days before the planned opening date of a new registered family child care home or change of location; and (b) 30 days prior to the expiration of the registration for a renewal. (A) If an application for renewal and payment of the required fee is received at least 30 days prior to the expiration date of the current registration, the current registration unless officially revoked, remains in force until CCLD has acted on the application for renewal and has given notice of the action taken. (B) If an application for renewal and payment of the required fee is not received at least 30 days prior to the expiration date of the current registration, the registration will expire and the registered family child care must cease operations unless the renewal is completed prior to the expiration date. (4) An applicant must provide the following items with the application for an initial registration, or change of address: (a) Initial or current lead testing results for each source of drinking water, as required in OAR 414-210-0820; and (b) Verification that the provider has met the initial training listed in OAR 414-210-0370(1). (5) An application for renewal of a registered family child care may be approved by CCLD upon successful completion of CCLD’s Health and Safety inspection with CCLD staff and verification that the provider has met ongoing training requirements identified in OAR 414-210-0380. (6) An applicant must pay in full all civil penalties established by final order against the applicant or be compliant with a CCLD approved payment plan before CCLD will process an initial or renewal application. (7) If CCLD has not approved, issued a notice of intent to deny, or issued a final order by default or after a contested case hearing denying an application within 12 months of the date the application was submitted to CCLD, the application may be closed, subject to the applicant’s right to submit a new application at any time. This rule does not apply if: (a) The application is a timely renewal application; or (b) CCLD has issued a notice of intent to deny the application that has not resulted in a final order or withdrawal.
