Hi Amber,

I am also just recently set up with direct funding and my son's birthday is in August. When I received back the contract from MCFD, they automatically extended the contract to Aug 2009. So, don't worry about it.
As far as the balance in the account, if you have a balance of $3400 (after all expenses submitted for the month) they will withhold the funding until you spend the money, but I've been advised by the CLBC Facilitator and the Funding Unit Rep to call the Autism Funding Process Unit to ask them taking off the hold and give them the reason why.
For the beginning they will be lenient and understand that it will take months to get things started. The best way to get clarification for everything in regards to funding is to call the Funding Process Unit at 1 (877) 777-3530.
You should get a call from the Autism Funding Process Unit Rep once your account is set-up and she/he will go over the contract with you.
In the beginning you will receive a cheque from them for the amount you are entitled to, then it will be directly deposited to your bank account.
Please make sure you have all receipts for your expenses because they prefer receipts (showing you have paid) as opposed to invoice.

Hope this help.

Monika,
Thanks for the info.
I just called our municipal property tax dept. and they said I needed to answer the questions for eligibility. They will mail the form to me. Any tips/ recommendation on answering the questions so that it can go through properly?

Hi there,

My son (30 months old) is pre-diagnosed with mild ASD and we think it will be positive with one more assessment to go. We did the assessment privately. In the meantime, we are in search of ABA program and try to understand how the program works. I need help finding an affordable and great ABA consulants/ interventionists and how many hours are needed in average for the intervention. Also we would like to know if the SPL and OT are really needed or ABA program is all what we need.

Please share your experience with us as we are new to this journey.
My email is jetty.kurniawan@gmail.com
