Court Orders If a parent alleges a court order which specifies the noncustodial parent is responsible for all medical costs, obtain a copy of the court order and forward to the local child support enforcement unit AND the Chief of E&P. In this instance, DO NOT assess a monthly reimbursement until directed by the Chief of E&P. 10. Noncooperation If a parent fails to provide income information, provides false or misleading statements; misrepresents, conceals or withholds facts to avoid financial responsibility, a monthly reimbursement of $1,900 is assessed. If a parent provides only partial information/verification, request the remaining information/verification giving 10 days. If all the information/ verification is not received by the deadline given, assess $1,900. If, after receiving notification of the $1,900 obligation, the parent later provides needed verifications, determine monthly reimbursement amount and notify I&R of change in monthly obligation effective the month after the month of cooperation. D-385.3 Redetermination of Eligibility At each scheduled redetermination of eligibility (at least once per year), the monthly reimbursement is recalculated for the upcoming year. Adjustments to the previous year's assessment will be reported to I&R via Form 6009-AG. D-385.4 Undue Hardship Responsible parents may apply for a "hardship waiver" if they are unable to pay their assessed monthly reimbursement amount due to: 1. A change in family’s monthly income (25% or more); or 2. Payment of the monthly reimbursement amount would severely compromise the health, shelter or subsistence needs of their family. Individuals seeking a hardship waiver should fully document their circumstances in writing and submit their request to the Chief of I&R. No adjustment of the monthly parental reimbursement amount will be made without the prior approval of the Chief of I&R.
