Reasons to Suspend a Case

A case may be suspended by the Intake team for the following reasons:

• If more time is needed to obtain a copy of an existing support order. For procedures and more information, refer to the CASE INITIATION sections of policy.

• If requesting a copy of a Utah Voluntary Acknowledgement of Paternity by Parents (VDP) because paternity information is not currently available.

• If there is evidence of out-of-state paternity documentation establishing paternity.

In addition, a Children in Care (CIC) case may be suspended by an Intake team to include the time necessary for the child(ren) to be in a chargeable placement on the first day of the month and/or to obtain a copy of an existing support order or juvenile court order for the child(ren) in care.
