Electronic Timesheet System — Paper Timesheets are going away!
Beginning July 1, 2019 IHSS providers in LA County will have to enroll in the Electronic Timesheet service that allows a provider to submit their IHSS/WPCS timesheets online using a tablet, smartphone, laptop or computer instead of receiving and submitting paper timesheets. This service will also allow a provider’s timesheets to be reviewed and approved by their recipient(s) using their tablet, smartphone, laptop or computer, or a landline telephone.
Some of the benefits of this service are:
- Provider will be able to enter and submit timesheets online (saving the time it takes to mail the timesheet)
- Request supplemental timesheets via online system
- Check timesheet and payment status (Check timesheet history up to the last three months)
- Enroll in direct deposit
To enroll in the Electronic Timesheets Website:
- You need to be a current active IHSS and/or WPCS provider
-
You need to have access to the internet, be able to use a capable electronic device (smartphone, tablet, computer or laptop)
-
You need to have a valid email address that you can log into. If you are a provider, you must also have your IHSS provider number (found on your paper timesheet or check stub), date of birth and the last four digits of your Social Security Number
