  • The child support program is required to include a copy of the tribe’s most current Indirect Cost Rate (IDC) agreement.

  • If the tribe is in the process of renegotiating a rate, use the IDC based on the tribe’s most recently completed fiscal year.

  • The tribe is required to submit the new IDC agreement to OCSE as soon as it becomes available.

  • If the tribe uses IDC to meet part of the non-federal match in the current budget year, it will cause their IDC pool to be reduced the following budget year.

  • A tribe must include a copy of their current IDC Agreement (or a copy of their request for a new negotiated rate). If they do not, a historical rate may be applied or IDC may be disallowed pursuant to 45 CFR 75.411, 75.414, 75.415 and Appendix VII to Part 75.

Pursuant to 45 CFR 309.130(b)(2)(iv) your Budget Packet must include, as an attachment, “A statement that the Tribe or Tribal organization has or will have the non-Federal share of program expenditures available, as required.”

1 Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax is a U.S. federal payroll tax imposed on both employees and employers to fund Social Security and Medicare programs.

2 State Unemployment Tax Authority (SUTA) is a form of payroll tax that all states require employers to pay for their employees.

3 Medicare withholding is a payroll tax used to fund Medicare, which is part of the Social Security program. Employers withhold Medicare tax money from all employee wages and send it to the Internal Revenue Service. The tax amount withheld is noted on payroll stubs and end-of-year tax documents.

4 Workers' Compensation Insurance is a requirement for all employers that have more than one employee. It is a no-fault system under which injured employees receive benefits in connection with work-related injuries or occupational illness. It is paid entirely by the employer. No payroll deductions are taken out of individual employees' paychecks.

5 Retirement can include pension plans, Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA), 401K or other retirement plans wherein the employee contributes to the plan and the employer contributes a specific percentage in addition to the employee.
