The department may make payment or return support to a person reasonably appearing to be entitled to payment, if the support has not already been disbursed to the department as unclaimed property. The owner should immediately contact the department as indicated below in 8.50.132.11 NMAC to establish a claim for the undistributed support. When the owner's identity is verified, the department will distribute the support to the owner so long as the owner made his or her claim within the appropriate timeframes.
