A:
If your pre-approved self-employment plan with Arizona Vocational Rehabilitation (V.R.) is not being supported, especially after being approved by a now-retired counselor, it's essential to take action to advocate for yourself. Start by gathering all documentation related to the approval of your plan, including any correspondence or formal approvals from your previous counselor. This will help strengthen your case when communicating with V.R.
If your request for a fair hearing has been ignored, consider contacting your local V.R. office again in writing. Clearly state that you previously requested a hearing and have not received a response. Include your documentation and express the need for a resolution. Make sure to keep copies of all correspondence and follow up persistently.
If V.R. continues to be unresponsive, you may consider reaching out to the Arizona Office of Administrative Hearings or a legal aid organization for further assistance. They can provide guidance on how to ensure your rights are protected and help you navigate the next steps. Don’t give up—your persistence is key to ensuring your plan gets the fair consideration it deserves.
