DEDUCTIONS/ALLOWANCES VERIFICATION STANDARDS - DEPENDENT CARE:

A. The applicant/recipient’s statement is acceptable for verification of dependent care expenses, if the information given is not questionable. If information is questionable or inconsistent; ISD must clearly document why the household’s statement was unacceptable and why information requires additional verification.

B. Documents which may be used to verify dependent care costs:

(1) current bill;

(2) written statement from the provider;

(3) additional items as listed in ISD 135 “proof checklist”; or

(4) if documentary evidence is not readily available, or is questionable a collateral contact with the care provider may be used as verification of dependent care costs or use other acceptable methods of verification as set forth in 8.100.130.9 NMAC.
