SUBJECT:
DISBURSED CHILD SUPPORT PAYMENTS MONTHLY REPORT (FIM31147-01) AND CHILD SUPPORT EXCEEDS GRANT ALLOCATIONS MONTHLY REPORT (FIM31148-01)
FORMS MANUAL REVISION #4
 
DISCUSSION:
Report No. FIM31147-01 "Disbursed Child Support Payments Monthly Report", and Report No. FIM31148-01 "Child Support Exceeds Grant Allocations Monthly Report" have been changed.  These reports will now reflect current child support information.

When county staff receive FIM31147-01 "Disbursed Child Support Payments Monthly Report" they must review the information in the Missouri Automated Child Support System (MACSS) and the case record.  This report will give staff the current amount of child support paid in order to complete budget adjustments as necessary.

When county staff receive FIM31148-01 "Child Support Exceeds Grant Allocations Monthly Report" they must review the information in MACSS and the case record.  Staff must then take the following action.

  • If the current child support payment is less than the case grant, no action is necessary.
  • If the current child support payment is greater than the cash grant take immediate action to close the case using the IM-80 (Adverse Action Notice) or the IM-80A (Waiver of Ten Day Advance Notice)
NOTE:  The Temporary Assistance participant cannot receive the higher child support payment until the Temporary Assistance cash case is closed.  Refer to E-mail IM #116 dated October 27,2000, for further instructions.  (Medical Assistance for Families (MAF) eligibility may still exist.)
 
NECESSARY ACTION:
  • Review this memorandum with all appropriate staff.
  • Take action to complete budget adjustments timely.
  • Take action to close cash cases where the child support exceeds grant timely.
  • File Report No. FIM31147-01 and the forms instructions in the Forms Manual.
  • File Report No. FIM31148-01 and the forms instructions in the Forms Manual.
