General Material
A federal match of 66 percent is available for State administrative costs of carrying out child support enforcement program activities under title IV-D of the Social Security Act (Act). ARRA temporarily changes the child support authorization language to allow States to use Federal incentive payments provided to States as their State share of expenditures eligible for Federal match. Provisions would temporarily reverse a 20 percent cut to federal child support program funds made by the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005.
