My son is a late-December 2010, and will need some services through CSE next year. By all logic he should repeat "kindergarten" next year and not go into Pre1a. As far as I know in NYC the current law is that a child should be registered for Kindergarten with the calendar year. Especially now that many 4 yr-old programs are now UPK, they may not take a child who should be in Kindergarten. Will CSE give me a hard time about providing my son services if he's not in a Pre1a?

He also wouldn't be eligable for a SEIT even though he will be in kindergarten. He could get P3 services instead if he qualifies. In general, it is harder to obtain services after 5 so come to your meeting prepared, make sure his teachers are prepared, etc.

Op here, So my son's issue isn't primarily cognitive, but more speech and hence social.

It probably depends on your district but from what I've seen there is usually no problem transferring services from CPSE to CSE. If the child was getting SEIT that generally progresses to SETSS (P4.) You do not need to keep the child with his "year" if you feel that preschool would be a better placement for him. I've done P4 for kids who are turning 5 but in a 4-year-old class.
A UPK school could choose not to accept your child because he wouldn't be eligible for UPK. That's a separate issue that I don't know about. But unrelated to CSE services. Speech issues tend to include language so that qualifies for P4 help if you ask for it the right way, and then the P4 provider can basically act as a SEIT if you're in the class of that age anyway.
