BACKGROUND: 

NRS 425.370 and 425.380(1) require counties to provide child support enforcement services for local applicants.  Under this Interlocal Contract, Clark County agrees to perform its statutory duties and will receive the approved federal reimbursements for providing Title IV-D services for local, intrastate and interstate child support cases as defined under federal regulation 45CFR 304.20.  Title IV-D is part of the Social Security Act which establishes the federal program for reimbursement to the states for child support enforcement efforts.  The federal reimbursement currently is 66%.  Under the terms of this agreement, the State would retain 15% of any additional incentive amounts which might be awarded based on Clark County's performance.  Like the last interlocal for these services, this is a four year agreement, with a 2% increase in the County's obligation in each of the three years after 2021.
