Budgeting Support Example 3

Application month is 05/15. The three prior calendar months and payments follow:

02/15		03/15		04/15
02/04	$0	03/13	$100	04/03	$125
		3/17	$75	04/10	$100

The participant explains that in February, the children's father was ill and didn't work. The participant states she usually receives around $200 per month, but it varies.

Total the child support received in March and April ($400). Divide the $400 by the number of months child support was received (2).

The average amount ($200) agrees with the court order or pay history. Budget $200 for the application month and document the case file on how the decision was made.
