Child Care Licensing Procedure Manual
The completed CFS-294 must be mailed, emailed, or hand delivered as soon as possible, but no later than 10 business days from the date of the site visit during which the violation(s) was cited. The licensing specialist should include the CFS-294 instruction sheet with the CFS-294.
The 10 business-day time frame for sharing the CFS-294 applies even if an order or other enforcement action will be forthcoming. The only exception to this 10-day time frame is when:
A complaint or self-report investigation is underway and further information must be obtained following the site visit, or
There is a specific reason to wait related to a planned enforcement action. The licensing specialist should make this decision to delay the CFS-294 in collaboration with the licensing manager/supervisor.
