Loss of support may be paid to a victim of the offender if the offender was providing support to the victim before the date the crime occurred. Payment made for lost support is limited to the 36-month period immediately following the date the crime occurred or, if the claim is on behalf of the offender's dependent child or children who are also victims of the offender, the date the last dependent child reaches the age of 19, whichever occurs first. The claimant must supply documentation to the department that verifies the amount of support provided by the offender prior to the crime. The amount of lost support a claimant is eligible to receive is calculated according to SDCL 23A-28B-20.
