For federal fiscal year (FFY) 2009 and the first month of FFY 2010, the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) issued the federal financial participation (FFP) of Title IV-D expenditures paid for with child support incentives as a reimbursement to the child support enforcement agency (CSEA).

Effective November 1, 2009, subject to the availability of funding, a CSEA intending to use child support incentives as the nonfederal share may draw down the FFP for actual and immediate needs in advance. Ohio Administrative Code 5101:9-6-30 "Child Support Performance Incentive Payments" has been amended to reflect this change in funding practice.

Should you have questions regarding this FAPMTL, please contact your ODJFS fiscal supervisor in the Bureau of County Finance and Technical Assistance at (614) 752-9194.
