They can waive your fee, but it looks like you have to jump through some hoops to achieve that. 

Application Fee Waiver: A filing fee is not charged if you are receiving public assistance from the
State of Connecticut, or if a candidate’s income falls below the federal poverty levels. A written
request for a waiver that includes either a copy of a current benefit card (State of CT Department of
Social Services identification card or a W-2 statement of Earnings for the year must be submitted to
the Civil Service Commission at the address listed below). An applicant’s Social Security number
must be noted on the front of the benefit card or on the copy of the W-2 Statement of Earnings.

Hello Andrew,

Monday, July 9, 2007, 11:24:44 AM, you wrote:

More likely they'll have to go buy their own darn mouse if they want
one.

The later post about the fee to take civil service exam seems
particularly stupid.  If you were unemployed, maybe even homeless due
to the unemployment, how in the world would you be able to pay the
fee?  Maybe they'd just rather pay for all of the other social ills
caused by some poor person not being able to apply for and obtain a
job.
