MR #08.33: Initiation of Child Support Reconciliation

Summary:

Custodial parents who apply for TANF, AABD Cash, AABD Medical, or All Kids/FamilyCare Assist with income up to the Family Health Spenddown Standard for a child are required to participate with Child Support Enforcement (CSE) unless they can show good cause for not cooperating.
The Form 1611 (Notice of Failure to Cooperate) posted in Mobius is the official notice of record when a custodial parent fails to cooperate.
As soon as Mobius Form 1611 is received, immediately begin the reconciliation process by sending Form 2846 (Reconciliation Appointment Notice) to a client who is subject to penalty or sanction for noncooperation.
If Form 2846 is not mailed within 45 calendar days from the date Form 1611 is posted in Mobius, the action is not timely and is out of compliance.
The case record must contain signed documentation assigning rights to child support and medical support payments to the State.
