[NABS-L] Next steps in getting funding from VR

Good luck in getting your funding to attend the Colorado Center for the blind. Next week I will be taking a tour of our local rehabilitation center here in Florida to see if I would like to go there.

My VR counselor emailed me on May 7th, stating that she submitted all the required paperwork to management and that she would let me know when they made a decision. As of last Tuesday, May 15th, she was sending her supervisors  additional information they requested. I have still not heard anything. I know that in the IEP process, there are timelines for evaluations and processes that must be followed. Does anyone know if VR has similar timelines in which they have to give me a decision?
