Its paragraph (d)(5) specifies implementation periods following revocation or denied extension, including a legislative-session predicate and a separate no-legislation rule following revocation.

Section 301.1 separately defines “past-due support” as ordered child support, or child-and-co-resident-parent support, that remains unpaid. Its expressly historical tax-offset qualification through September 30, 2007 is not treated as a current general definition. | **S001**, §666(e); **S004**, §301.1 definitions of overdue support and past-due support.

Section 301.1’s spousal-support definition has a co-resident-child condition. Most importantly for this pass, §303.8 defines adjustment as affecting only the order’s **child-support provisions**. Standalone alimony and divorce-property modification rules remain outside this component. | **S001**, §654(4)(B); **S004**, §301.1, spousal-support definition; **S006**, §303.8(b)(4)(ii).

Separately, assigned-support provisions contemplate an amount determined under state legal processes when no court order exists; §302.50 also recognizes administrative orders and, except for the specified medical assignment category, other state legal process such as a binding agreement. None of this proves that an unidentified obligation exists or that a private loan qualifies. | **S001**, §656(a)(1)–(2); **S005**, §302.50(a)–(b); **S006**, §303.106(a).

The periodic-review requirement expressly concerns an order being enforced under IV-D. The guidelines presumption applies to any judicial or administrative child-support award proceeding. Unknown IV-D status therefore does not justify either applying every IV-D service rule or disregarding every selected federal requirement. | **S001**, §§666(a)(9), (a)(10)(A)(i), 667(b)(2); **S005–S006**, §§302.56(f), 303.8(b)(1), 303.106.

Later examine the applicable published support, domestic-relations, and contract classification law; do not infer facts from a label. |\n| **R023-P1-B002 — IV-D status unknown** | **Partial.** Do not equate non-assistance with non-IV-D, or unknown IV-D status with absence of all federal rules. | Keep the three applicability boundaries separate. **C002–C003, C013**. | Missing service status and scope. Later read current §302.33, applicable published program-entry rules, and any adopted change to the 2026 proposal. |\n| **R023-P1-B003 — No operative order supplied** | **Partial.** Missing evidence is not proof that no order or obligation exists. | The installment rule needs its order predicate; assigned-support legal processes are a separate possibility. **C008, C012**. | Missing legal instrument and validity predicates. Later examine published initial-establishment, administrative-order, binding-agreement, and judgment-validity rules for the permitted jurisdiction. |\n| **R023-P1-B004 — Accrued versus future installment** | **Answered federally; application held.** Do not treat all periods as one modifiable balance. | Classify whether an amount became due and whether the pending-period exception is implicated. **C014–C017, C023; E001**. | Missing due-period and operative-law facts. Later examine published accrual, prospective-effect, and modification-effective-date law. |\n| **R023-P1-B005 — Pending petition without required notice** | **Answered federally; notice facts held.** Filing alone does not establish permission to reach the pre-notice period. | Petition pendency and qualifying notice are separate predicates. **C017–C020; E001**. | Missing legally sufficient notice. Later read current service, agency-notice, agent-authority, and due-process rules; no service-status lookup. |\n| **R023-P1-B006 — Sufficient notice stipulated, state procedure unknown** | **Partial.** Satisfying the federal notice boundary does not guarantee modification from that date. | State permission, tribunal authority, grounds, and disposition remain necessary. **C019–C021; E001**. | Missing substantive and procedural state authority. Later read published modification, relation-back/effective-period, and tribunal-jurisdiction provisions. |\n| **R023-P1-B007 — Income/job loss without order change** | **Partial.** Do not infer suspension or accrued-debt erasure. | Potential grounds must be evaluated through the correct review route and guidelines. **C024, C031, C041–C045**. | Missing applicable guidelines, substantial-change standard, and legally effective change. Later read published income, imputation, low-income-adjustment, and modification rules. |\n| **R023-P1-B008 — Incarceration versus ability to pay/adjustment** | **Partial.** Neither automatic zero support nor voluntary-unemployment treatment is justified. | Separate guidelines treatment, remaining-duration threshold, agency learning, state election, notice, and outcome. **C046–C053**. | Missing legal classification and state implementation. Later inspect the public state-plan election, comparable-law text, guidelines, and official federal interpretation of any uncertain confinement category. |\n| **R023-P1-B009 — Periodic review versus immediate change** | **Answered federally.** A cycle date does not replace the order. | Three-year order review and four-year guidelines review serve different functions. **C028–C030, C039–C040**. | Missing applicable cycle and review outcome. Later examine published review procedures and guidelines effective-date provisions. |\n| **R023-P1-B010 — Review requested versus modification entered** | **Answered federally; application held.** A request, recommendation, review, and effective order are not interchangeable. | The permitted outcome includes no adjustment. A request is not automatically the nonretroactivity exception’s start event. **C004, C021, C035–C037, C045**. | Missing legal status of the request and disposition. Later examine the published procedure that converts an agency review into a tribunal or administrative modification. |\n| **R023-P1-B011 — Claimed payment credit** | **Partial.** Do not treat every credit claim as forbidden retroactive modification—or every transfer as support. | Accounting correction and qualifying collected-support credit are distinct from changing the obligation. **C025–C026**. | Missing payment character and allocation. Later read published credit, allocation, satisfaction, and accounting-correction law; no payment-record request. |\n| **R023-P1-B012 — State-owed versus family-owed arrears** | **Partial.** State administration does not prove ownership of all components. | Assignment and specific agreement/approval requirements matter. **C054–C060**. | Missing assignment category, period, and ownership. Later examine current and applicable historical assignment law, transition provisions, and published compromise delegations. |\n| **R023-P1-B013 — Interest authority unknown** | **Unresolved.** Do not assume universal interest or universal waiver authority. | The definition’s reference to interest supplies neither. **C059–C060**. | Missing interest statute, accrual basis, owner, and waiver delegation. Later read applicable published interest and compromise provisions and their effective dates. |\n| **R023-P1-B014 — Custody/age change** | **Partial.** Do not infer federal automatic termination, suspension, or arrears forgiveness. | A valid prospective state-law effect is possible, but must be established; duration has a separate interstate rule. **C023–C024, C064**. | Missing duration and event-effect law. Later examine published emancipation, duration, custody-related modification, and automatic-operation provisions. |\n| **R023-P1-B015 — Cross-state/controlling-order uncertainty** | **Partial.** Do not choose the current location, most recent paper, or largest amount as controlling. | Modification authority must be established before applying the review forum’s procedures. **C062–C064**. | Missing legal jurisdiction/controlling-order predicates. Later investigate the necessary published UIFSA enactment and §1738B recognition/modification rules; no case or party lookup. |\n| **R023-P1-B016 — Tribal case** | **Unresolved; parent hold preserved.** Do not import every state-IV-D clock or infer absence of tribal protections. | Different definitional and program scopes require separate analysis. **C065**. | Part 309 retrieval gap and tribal-law scope. Later obtain current 42 U.S.C. §655(f), 45 C.F.R. §§309.90, 309.105, 309.120 and, only if authorized, the relevant published tribal law. |\n| **R023-P1-B017 — Ordinary family loan** | **Excluded except classification boundary.** Do not use child-support nonretroactivity or review rules as loan law. | No contract, gift-versus-loan, repayment, or enforceability conclusion. **C011**. | Missing applicable contract/gift law and agreement characterization. A separate permitted A023 investigation is required. |\n| **R023-P1-B018 — Spousal/property obligation** | **Excluded except limited federal scope.** Do not treat a whole divorce order as child support. | Limited spousal program coverage does not enlarge §303.8 adjustment beyond child-support provisions. **C010–C011**. | Missing obligation classification and state modification law. A separate permitted investigation of published spousal-support/property law is required. |\n\n## 6. Fully worked qualitative illustration\n\n### R023-P1-E001 — Petition, notice, and the affected period\n\nThis is an **abstract classification exercise**.

The petition alone does not change the obligation. | State procedure, later notice, modification grounds, and prospective disposition. |\n| While the petition remains pending, legally sufficient notice of that petition to the correct recipient is stipulated. | The federal exception can permit modification for the covered period beginning no earlier than that notice event. **Permission is established only at the federal boundary.** | Whether state law permits the requested effective period and whether the authorized tribunal grants any change. |\n| A valid modification is later made under the applicable state procedure. | Its lawful terms determine the changed obligation; the federal exception does not automatically reach older protected installments. | The actual terms and lawful effective period, which are not supplied or invented. |\n| A separate entry is shown to be a miscalculation or an omitted qualifying collected-support payment. | C025–C026 identify a correction/credit question distinct from rewriting the underlying obligation. | Proper proof, allocation, correction authority, and any contested legal characterization. |\n| A compromise is considered instead of a correction or modification. | C056–C060 require separate attention to state authority, ownership, agreement, and approvals. | No settlement result, percentage, or suitability conclusion follows. |\n\nNo numerical award, payoff estimate, or identifying hypothetical is warranted or supplied.\n\n## 7.

Explicit gaps and preserved parent holds\n\n### Material legal gaps remaining within this focused component\n\n1. **State implementation and tribunal authority.** No state’s modification, petition, service, notice, jurisdiction, automatic-change, judgment-correction, or approval law was investigated. The federal framework cannot supply those missing predicates.\n2. **No-request review timing.** The selected §303.8 text does not expressly resolve every starting event for paragraph (e) when review begins under paragraph (b)(2) without a request. The report does not convert the special notice period into a universal completion deadline.\n3. **Compromise and interest.** The obtained official interpretations establish conditional distinctions, including state-assignee approval and family agreement. They do not settle universal authority over interest, every state’s delegation, the sufficiency of consent, or rights belonging to a child or another holder.\n4. **Assignment history.** The retrieved §608 text has a narrower compilation predicate. Historical assignments, transition rules, distribution priorities, and actual ownership are not resolved.\n5. **Tribal law and program rules.** The failed Part 309 retrieval remains a source gap. No state-program timetable is automatically transferred to a tribal program.\n6. **Interstate application.** Only necessary recognition, modification-authority, and duration predicates were used. No controlling order, issuing state, continuing jurisdiction, consent, registration, or choice-of-law result is determined.\n7. **Complete currentness and judicial history.** The displayed bodies and selected rule history are documented. A complete session-law, future-effective, published-opinion, stay, or vacatur audit is not claimed. No docket-status inquiry was conducted.\n\n### Parent holds preserved\n\nAll actual party, family, employment, income, coverage, IV-D status, order, tribunal, jurisdiction, controlling-order, payment, service, petition, notice, assignment, interest, consent, accounting, age, custody, and incarceration facts remain held.\n\nAlso preserved are state/local/tribal support and modification law; judgment, compromise, interest, limitations, and enforcement procedures; UIFSA/FFCCSOA beyond the selected predicates; private loans, written agreements, gifts, spousal support and divorce-property obligations; garnishment, offsets, passport/license consequences, contempt, criminal enforcement, collections, credit reporting, settlement suitability, tax, insolvency, remedies, litigation, international law, and every other unaddressed A023 dimension.\n\nNo CFPB instrument was necessary or introduced.\n\n## 11.
