Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) Except as provided in 10:87-6.13, a deduction shall be allowed only in the month the expense is billed or otherwise becomes due, regardless of when the household intends to pay the expense. For example, child care, which is due each month shall be included in the household's child care deduction, even if the household has not yet paid the expense.

(b) Amounts carried forward from past billing periods are not deductible, even if included with the most recent billing and actually paid by the household. In any event, a particular expense may only be deducted once.

(c) Legally obligated or court-ordered child support payments paid by a household member to or for a nonhousehold member, including payments to a third party on behalf of the nonhousehold member (vendor payments). The CWA shall allow a deduction for amounts paid toward arrearages. Alimony payments made to or for a nonhousehold member shall not be included in the child support deduction. The child support payment shall be budgeted in accordance with 10:87-6.13(d).
