TO: Fiscal Administrative Procedure Manual Holders
FROM: Michael B. Colbert, Director
SUBJECT: Supplemental Child Support Funding

The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) is issuing a one-time supplemental Child Support allocation to assist the county Child Support Enforcement Agencies (CSEAs) in meeting the required match for Title IV-D expenditures. This funding is issued in response to the reduction in agencies' child support incentive during the April through June 2013 quarter.

ODJFS will follow the child support incentive methodology set forth in rule 5101:9-6-30 "Child Support Performance Incentive Payments" and allowable expenditures are in accordance with rule 5101:9-6-80 "State Child Support Allocations."

Agencies may:

  • Use funds as match for IV-D expenditures; or
  • Recode expenditures claimed to child support incentives during this SFY.

ODJFS will issue coding for the Supplemental Child Support allocation and further information regarding expenditure reporting via a Bureau of County Finance and Technical Assistance (BCFTA) Update.
