What is the SI Application Approval Determination timeframe under old law?

• A. 14 days
• B. 7 days
• C. 21 days
• D. 30 days

Answer: (A)

Under the old SIP framework, the agency had fourteen days to issue an approval determination after the self-insurance application was deemed complete. This short, fixed deadline ensured a prompt decision, reducing the period of uncertainty for employers pursuing self-insured status. If the application wasn’t complete, the clock didn’t start until the missing information was provided, and the review could not proceed until that data was in. The other timeframes shown (seven, twenty-one, or thirty days) aren’t the standard under old law because the statute specified fourteen days for the approval decision.
