This includes all cases that were enrolled
with the Maintenance Enforcement Program at some point during the fiscal year.
The interjurisdictional support order status of a case is determined by the
status during the last month the case was enrolled in the Maintenance Enforcement
Program. Cases administered in this table used a definition developed for
Survey of Maintenance Enforcement Programs data, and results will be slightly
higher than the cases administered figure in table 3, which used a different
definition developed for Maintenance Enforcement Survey data.
Amounts due at the end of each month are aggregated
to arrive at amount due for the fiscal year. Adjustments to the amount due
transactions that occur after the reference month are not incorporated.
Total payments received include all payments
received during the year, as well as any updates to payments received after
the reference month (for example, an adjustment for a "non-sufficient funds"
cheque or late notification of a direct payment).
Some arrears payments received in the fiscal
year pay down arrears that accrued before the fiscal year.
Note(s):
Interjurisdictional support order-out cases are excluded, as are amounts
due or received when a case had an interjurisdictional support order-out status.
Total may not add up due to rounding.
