FOP User Guide, Version 9.1
(Posted 11/20/08)

The purpose of this FOP User Guide is to provide state Child Support Enforcement (IV-D) agencies with information on the technical aspects of establishing and maintaining the interface between their statewide automated systems and the FOP. Although the primary audience is the IV-D technical staff, this document provides basic information to assist IV-D administrative, programmatic, and policy staff in understanding the functionality of the FOP.

Version 9.1 of the User Guide includes updates to reflect the system changes implemented in Releases 08-01 (April 2008) and 08-02 (October 2008), verbiage changes to reflect recently enacted provisions of the Deficit Reduction Act (DRA) of 2005, as well as minor corrections and enhancements.
