Monthly Statement of Collections & Distributions
The following explain the entries on the Monthly
Statement of Collections form.
:
Date payment actually received by the child support agency.
Month
to which a support collection applies. The Date of Collection may be earlier
than the Date of Receipt (for more information on this, see Effective
date of payment.)
: If you received public assistance, the distributions
will show how much support was paid to the family and to the county under the heading, WELFARE.
Disregard
payments come from current support only. Whether a payment is current
support is decided by the Date of Collection. The family is entitled to
only the first $50 of support collected for the current month. This $50
limit applies even if current support is collected from more than one
paying parent or for more than one child. This money is called a "disregard"
because it is not counted against the family's CalWORKs grant. If no child
support is received in a month there will be no "disregard"
payment for that month
:
Effective, April 2000, pass-ons are no longer issued. However, there is
still a possibility that pass-on could be issued for payments made prior
to April 2000. If it is determined current support was collected that
was more than your CalWORKs grant, you will be paid a "pass-on"
of the extra support. Pass-on payments must be reported on your public
assistance income report.
: Excess
is past due support that is paid to the family after all public assistance
has been repaid. Excess payments must be reported on your public assistance
income report.
If
the family did not receive public assistance during any month the child
support agency collected support, the distributions will show payments
for current support or arrears (past due support) under the heading NONWELFARE.
If
the family has been on and off CalWORKs, there may be
distribution amounts under both WELFARE and NONWELFARE.
