Due to unforseen reasons, adoption assistance subsidy payments for the first pay run this fiscal year are going to be delayed. The pay run was scheduled to be complete by July 15th, but at this time the Department of Finance & Administration is still processing payments through Edison.
We do not have a date of when the adoption assistance payments will be made to adoptive parents, but our hope is that subsidy payments will go out the earlier part of next week. As the Office of Permanency, Division of Foster Care & Adoption and the Office of Finance and Program Support learn more information from F&A about the target date for payment, information will be shared with regional staff working with adoptive parents who receive adoption assistance payments.
As you receive these calls, please be respectful,responsive and empathetic to the challenges this creates for our adoptive parents. Our hope is that will be resolved quickly and that this delay creates limited complications for any of our adoptive parents affected.
Please direct any calls concerning late subsidy payments for adoption assistance to the regional adoption assistance designee. Contact names and phone numbers are listed below.
