Yes, but it’s not lots in regards to a bathroom redo. Katie said, more than once, that this tub redo is only going to cost her $1000 and I’m not buying it. Yes, I agree she’s going to pay for it twice.. or at least she should.
Kim How hard is it for you to Understand Since its a Handicap apt they are going to Leave the Changes I am making! I am Finishing an Apt for them!

And how hard is it for you to understand, Katie, that you did not mention that little tidbit of information until after I posted the above post. You mentioned in previous posts that it “might” be a possibility that you won’t have to pay to have it put back in its original state. You did not say it was definite.

READ post 198 think its 2 posts Before yours!! AND post 133 Seems to me with the DRAMA You were making over the Bedrooms YOU Didn't READ the Whole Post!
That $1000 was to cover cost of the kit & install. Since it IS a Handicap apt there will be No Charge to put it back. What my Apt Mgr told me.
Katie, POSITIVELY, ABSOLUTELY get that in writing, signed by the apt manager and, preferably the owner or CEO/President of the property. Ideally, in your new lease for THIS apartment. Doesn't matter a damn what ANYBODY "tells you." What the Apt Mgr is meaningless verbal garbage.
There's no doubt your current lease contains a requirement that forbids a tenant from making changes to the property. If they do, they are responsible for restoring it to the original condition when moving out. The signed lease (or addendum) is the ONLY thing that will matter when you leave.

1. I have no freaking idea where you get the idea that "family can't be paid." Of course they can. Happens all the time.
2. Getting paid isn't the requirement of "caregiver." You're flat-out wrong. After I did some research, I haven't been able to find one 55+ that wouldn't allow a younger caregiver, even if that caregiver is an unpaid family member.
Katie, enjoy your drama. In many instances, YOU are the one who is creating your own problems.
You say family members serving as caregivers can be paid. Who is paying? Can you elaborate?
I know in WV they cant. And a few that tried paid heavy fines had to return the money & some Jail Time!
Katie, it took me less than 15 seconds to find the WV regulations that show you are incorrect. Yes, one has to go thru some hoops and there are limitations, but it is entirely legal. Here are THREE different programs:
As several of us have suggested, you need a disability advocate provided by the state, county or a non-profit community service organization. It's pretty obvious from this thread and others, that you and your son may not be getting the full range of services and assistance for the disabled. At the very least, you're accepting incorrect information as factual.

Programs vary from state to state, sometimes even county to county. This site provides a good base of information, and at the bottom, has more specific programs and links for each stat

My Name is KATIE1 Not Kim! Those sites are FALSE! QUIT Telling what I need & Don't need or can or Cant do! MYOB
Your link: spouses are excluded from being paid caregivers, but the adult children are not. Make note, this is based on county policy, as some counties allow family members to provide care, while others do not. MY COUNTY Does NOT ALLOW!
