Hello, How do I request a formal appeal for a denial of benefits from CHAP Clark County Rental Assistance Program? They do not offer any information on this and there is no free legal advice offered on this subject. I can’t even find where I can file a formal complaint. As I feel I was wrongfully denied assistance. I searched other states and they all have programs set up with all the information you need to file appeals and links for free legal assistance. Nevada’s or Clark County does not have they’re program set up to help you. I’m just not sure whether I file a complaint with the County, State, or US Treasury Department. Thank You.
Did you have your appeal?
