Impartial Hearing Officer’s Decision

(1) The Impartial Hearing Officer’s (IHO) decision shall be based on the approved State Plan, the federal Rehabilitation Act, federal vocational rehabilitation regulations, relevant state statutes, and the Program’s administrative rules and policies.

(2) The IHO shall provide a full written report of the findings and grounds for his or her decision to the parties within 30 calendar days the date the hearing was completed, unless the parties agree to an extension for a specific period of time. The written report shall include any findings from pre‐hearing conferences, motion hearings or any other formal hearing events, unless the IHO has already issued a separate order with these findings.

(3) A party who is dissatisfied with the IHO’s decision may request a Formal Administrative Review of that decision within 20 days following the date of mailing of the IHO’s decision. The date of mailing shall be the date identified on the certificate of mailing attached to the decision; if there is no certificate, the date of mailing shall be the date of the postmark; if there is no certificate or postmark, the date of mailing shall be the date of the decision.

(4) The IHO’s decision is final, unless either party timely requests a Formal Administrative Review of the decision. If a FAR is requested, the IHO’s order shall be automatically stayed and the decision may not be implemented while the FAR is pending.

(5) If neither party timely requests a FAR, the IHO’s decision becomes the Program’s final order and shall be implemented 21 days from the date of mailing of the IHO’s decision. If both parties agree in writing that they will not appeal the IHO’s decision, the decision may become the Program’s final order and implemented earlier than 21 days after the mailing date of the IHO’s decision.
