● The applicant may select “Yes” or “No” to the question, “Would you like to claim good cause?” in the ‘Cooperation with Child Support Enforcement’ section of the online application.
● If the applicant selects “Yes”, then:
o the applicant will be required to select one of the Good Cause Reasons listed below:

If the applicant/recipient claims good cause through an online application or re-application, explain the good cause provisions contained in the Notice of Good Cause Provisions under Title IV-D Program and accept the electronic signature of the applicant/recipient.
A manual OFS Flyer 6A must be completed with applicants/recipients who wish to claim good cause if the applicant/recipient:
● submits a paper application, ● submits an online application and adds the cash program during the interview, ● submits an online application indicating he/she did not wish to claim good cause and subsequently decides during the interview to claim good cause, ● requests good cause after certification, or ● requests more information regarding good cause.
For all applications, acknowledge receipt of the applicant’s/recipient’s wish to claim good cause by indicating “Yes” or “No” to the question, “Is the applicant claiming good cause?” in the ‘Cooperation with Child Support Enforcement’ section of the Interview Wizard.
