Or it will be deposited into the trust.

Applications received after this final deadline will be considered for the August 2024 bonus, and the $2,350 will be deposited into the trust for this payment.

February, May and August quarterly bonuses for minors will be distributed as follows if you do not fill out the form: · $1,000 paid directly to the parent or legal guardian of the minor · $2,350 deposited directly into the Minor’s Trust Account (will happen automatically if no form is on file)

If you have extra expenses, you can fill out the form and the February, May and August quarterly bonuses for minors with a form on file will be distributed as follows: Filling out the form is an option for parents to receive the $2,350 directly (and not the Trust, if a form is on file): If a parent has additional qualifying general welfare costs beyond the monthly $1,000 and quarterly $1,000 amounts received from the Tribe (exceeding the IRS living standard amounts), then the parent can apply to receive the $2,350 payment directly before it goes into the minor’s trust account. Each minor must have a form on file or it is presumed that you do not have extra expenses beyond what is already sent monthly and quarterly to the household and the $2,350 will be deposited into the Minor’s Trust Account.

This form is for the Tribe’s files. If you are audited by the IRS, you will be responsible for any taxes due and providing documentation that they request.

The General Welfare Program (GWP) is intended to promote the general welfare of the Tribe by helping to ensure that Members are able to meet minimum household needs for the benefit of the minor. For the fiscal year 2024, the monthly awards are $1,000 per Minor Member. The quarterly performance-based bonuses are $3,350 with $1,000 distributed to the minor's parent or legal guardian and $2,350 to the minor's trust account, each quarter. Total payments to the minor's parent or legal guardian for the year will be $16,000. Payments into the minor's trust account for the year will be $11,000. Parents who are able to certify and justify additional GWE expenses will receive the $2,350 quarterly amount directly, along with the other $1,000, rather than going into the minor's trust account. This option is not available for those in temporary care, RPP, or not in long-term guardianships.
