Ohio Admin. Code 5101:9-6-37 - Title IV-B allocation
(A) The Ohio department of job and family
services (ODJFS) issues Title IV-B allocation subpart 1 to public children
services agencies (PCSAs) to ensure that all children are raised in safe,
loving families. ODJFS issues Title IV-B funding in two separate allocations;
one for direct services and one for administrative costs.
(B) These allocations consist of federal
funds. The catalog of federal domestic
assistance listing
(CFDA)
(ALN) number is
93.645.
(C) ODJFS communicates the
funding period and liquidation period through the county finance information
system (CFIS). The PCSA can incur services through the funding period and
disburse and report expenditures no later than the end of the liquidation
period. Expenditures in excess of the allocation amount are the responsibility
of the county agency.
(D)
Methodology
ODJFS uses the following methodology to distribute available funds:
(1) ODJFS allocates forty per
cent of the statewide allocation equally among all PCSAs; and
(2) ODJFS allocates sixty per cent of the
statewide allocation based on each county's population of children less than
one hundred per cent of the federal poverty level as compared statewide in the
same category, utilizing the most recent available calendar year data from the
United States bureau of census figures.
(E) Reimbursement
(1) ODJFS reimburses expenditures with
seventy-five per cent federal Title IV-B subpart 1 funds. The county must use
eligible state funding or provide local funds at a twenty-five per cent match
rate for the nonfederal share.
(2)
When the federal
nonfederal share includes donated funds, rule
5101:9-7-50 of the
Administrative Code shall be followed.
(3) Current period Title IV-B expenditures
cannot exceed the amount claimed to the federal government in FFY 2005.
Therefore, the reimbursement for foster care maintenance and adoption
assistance payments are limited to the county claim for FFY 2005.
(F) Direct service costs
(1) The PCSA can charge expenditures outlined
in the Ohio child and family services plan against this allocation.
(2) PCSAs shall report direct service
expenditures as described in rule
5101:9-7-29 of the
Administrative Code.
(G)
Administrative costs
(1) A PCSA shall claim
reimbursement of administrative costs for Title IV-B through the social
services random moment sample (SSRMS) reconciliation/certification of funds
process.
(2) A PCSA shall also
request to transfer the IV-B administration allocation to the direct services
allocation to be used as stated in paragraph (F) of this rule.
A PCSA may request this transfer as described in
rule 5101:9-6-36 of the
Administrative Code to ODJFS prior to end of period of the liquidation
period.
(H) The
definitions, requirements, and responsibilities contained in rule
5101:9-6-50 of the
Administrative Code are applicable to this rule.
