Step by step

  1. Ask the CSB/BHA to identify the controlling written diagnostic and functional eligibility result.
  2. Confirm that the person is on the DD waiver waiting list and record the Priority One, Two, or Three designation.
  3. Ask when the priority checklist was last reviewed and which change should trigger a new review.

Expected next

Written confirmation of eligibility, waiting-list placement, priority designation, and the next review trigger or date.

Save this proof

Priority describes urgency under Virginia’s process; it does not establish when a waiver slot will become available.

Beyond Childhood’s checklists and prompts are planning aids derived from official sources. They are not official forms, legal advice, eligibility decisions, or guarantees of funding, capacity, quality, or service.
