Delinquent Debt

In making a determination of whether to grant an adult family home license, the department must consider credit information for applicants and each person or entity affiliated with the applicant (WAC 388-76-10115). The department does not accept delinquent debt not related to medical debt.  Applicants with delinquent debt not related to medical debt will need to provide proof the delinquent accounts have been brought current, or they will need to withdraw their application. Payment arrangements are not accepted. If related to medical debt, provide a brief statement if you are making payments toward the delinquent medical account(s) and provide a copy of your established repayment plan. BAAU accesses credit reports for applicants through Experian. You may contact Experian at (800) 520-1221 if you have any questions related to your credit report.
