Revised 7-1-05


(a) The Child Support Enforcement Division (CSED) determines noncooperation in a non-TANF case on the same basis as a Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) case.  OAC 340:25-5-114 describes indications of noncooperation.  If CSED determines noncooperation, CSED closes the case under Section 303.11 of Title 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations.

(b) CSED requires a new application to reopen a case closed because of noncooperation.  The applicant for services must agree to cooperate with CSED.   • 1

(c) OAC 340:40-7-9 describes the requirement to pursue child support with CSED, as a condition of eligibility, for custodial persons participating in the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS) child care subsidy program.  If CSED determines noncooperation of a custodial person receiving CSED child support services and child care subsidy services, CSED notifies the OKDHS Family Support Services (FSS) worker in the county office.  CSED initiates case closure action under Section 303.11 of Title 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations.  The FSS worker closes the child care subsidy benefits under OAC 340:40-7-9.   • 2

INSTRUCTIONS TO STAFF 340:25-5-118

  1. The Child Support Enforcement Division (CSED) considers the factors listed in OAC 240:25-5-114 in making a noncooperation determination in non-TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) cases.  The district child support office must document in the case record the circumstances of the noncooperation and what action the custodial person failed to take that was essential for proceeding to the next step in providing child support services.

  2. Documenting cooperation.

    • (1) Child support staff update the cooperation block on the CSED Custodial Person Data Update (CCPU) screen of the automated Oklahoma Support Information System (OSIS) to "O" and notify the Family Support Services worker when a custodial person is not cooperating with CSED.
    • (2) If the custodial person resumes cooperation with CSED, child support staff change the cooperation block on the CCPU screen to "Y."
