The participant states that the payment that should have been received on 3/22 was delayed due to an accounting problem. The payment was received on 04/03. This caused an extra payment in the month of April. When the extra payment is not expected to continue it is not budgeted for ongoing months.
 
When the court order is not available or the amount received each month differs, have the participant write a statement of the amount reasonably expected to be received. Obtain Supervisor approval and budget the amount indicated.
 
NOTE Do not budget current support income over the court ordered amount unless the payment is for arrearages. Any monies received for current support over the court ordered amount are countable as a gift.
