A. Title IV-D applicants and recipients: The state IV-D agency will provide services relating to the establishment of paternity or the establishment, modification, or enforcement of support obligations for a child, as appropriate, under the plan with respect to each child for whom:
B. Title IV-A, IV-E foster care, and medicaid only recipients: Appropriate recipients of Title IV-A, IV-E foster care, and medicaid only (where an assignment of rights is indicated and cooperation is required) are referred to the IV-D program and are eligible for all IV-D services. When a family needs support from a non-custodial parent and is approved for IV-A, IV-E foster care, non-IV-E medicaid, or medicaid benefits, a referral is made to the IV-D regional office. The medicaid only recipient, who has assigned support rights and whose cooperation is required, must receive medical support services but can decline receipt of all other IV-D services. In addition, post-IV-A recipients will continue to receive IV-D services until they inform the division that they no longer desire these services.
C. Non-IV-A applicants: Non-IV-A families can apply for program services through the completion of a non-IV-A application for services.
D. Non-resident applicant: A non-resident applicant who applies for services through the IV-D agency in their state of residence is eligible for assistance from the New Mexico IV-D program under applicable laws, so long as the other party resides in the state of New Mexico.
E. Non-custodial parent applicant: The non-custodial parent can apply for program services for the purpose of establishing paternity, child support, medical support, making support payments, or to request a review of an existing child support court order. Any other person or entity who has standing to request an adjustment to the child support order may apply for services.
