FROM: Douglas E. Lumpkin, Director
SUBJECT: Amendments to OAC 5101:2-44-08 and JFS 01454

This letter amends Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) rule 5101:2-44-08, "Redetermination and amendment of a state adoption maintenance subsidy," and the JFS 01454 "Approval and agreement for Title IV-E retroactive adoption assistance payments." OAC rule 5101:2-44-08 is being amended to remove language regarding the maximum payment amount for an approved State Adoption Maintenance Subsidy (SAMS). The maximum payment amount for SAMS for state fiscal year (SFY) 2011 is being increased. Effective July 1, 2010, the SAMS payment amount will be issued via procedure letter. The JFS 01454 is being amended to include a new paragraph that updates the changes to the Title IV-E Adoption Assistance payment amount. These changes will be effective July 1, 2010.
