Determining the Amount of the Support Pass-Through Payment

When current support is collected for a family receiving Cash Assistance, an SPT payment will be paid to the family the following month. The amount of SPT will match the amount of current support collected, up to the limits listed above. This applies regardless of the number of noncustodial parents who pay support for the children in the grant group that month.

When no current support is collected, an SPT payment will not be issued.

When there is more than one budget group in a common residence , an SPT payment may be issued for each budget group. If there is one budget group containing two grant groups, an SPT payment may be issued to each grant group.
