I didn't know what the "allowance" is for.

Hi,

Even in the same state the payment for foster children can vary according to: variation in cost of living in different areas;

𐂃 variation in payments between regions or counties within a state;

𐂃 supplemental payments that may be provided for a variety of expenditures; and

𐂃 variation in criteria used to determine different levels of care that receive higher reimbursements.

However, here is the link to our reference page:
