The Long and Winding Road Home

I have some good news and some not so good news.

First the not so good news. When we had our appointment with Road Home we were told to call back at any time and they would be able to tell us the status of our application. It tool two weeks of daily calls to get someone to call back. All we were trying to do was to find out if the evaluator had visited our house.

The good news. I actually have something nice to say about Road Home and ICF. When we had our appointment on January 19. We were told it would take seven to ten days for an evaluator to visit our house. We waited two weeks to call just to be sure they had enough time to get out there, anticipating they wouldn't have made it yet. After we finally got someone on the phone, it turns out that an evaluator went out January 20, the very next day. Our information was sent to Baton Rouge for something on January 22. I'm stunned.

We are told it will be six to eight weeks before they tell us the result. We are now more than three weeks into the six to eight weeks.
