Adoption subsidy records (GRS-2480)

Description

These are subsidy agreements to adopting families and are used to track eligibility and provide an audit trail for payments. State subsidies may be one time, time-limited, or long-term, depending on the circumstances of the family and the child's needs. Medical, dental, psychological, and long-term maintenance subsidies continue until age 18, or until age 21 if the state has determined that the child has a mental or physical handicap which warrants continuing assistance. All state subsidy agreements are reviewed annually for continued eligibility (Utah Administrative Code R537-43.2 (1993)).

Retention and Disposition
