	(a)  Unless the agency has agreed under AS 25.27.020(f)(1)(C) and this section to an alternative payment arrangement, a forgiveness agreement must require the parent to pay in accordance with an income withholding order issued under AS 25.27.062 or 25.27.250 to the parent's employer, insurer, or financial institution, or to a state or federal agency paying periodic benefits to a parent.  
	(b)  An alternative payment arrangement may include  
		(1) regular electronic fund transfers;  
		(2) payments by cash, a certified or cashier's check, or a money order;  
		(3) payments by wire service; and  
		(4) lump sum payments in advance.  
	(c)  The agency will agree to an alternative payment arrangement if the  
		(1) parent's employment is seasonal and employment in the parent's off-season is unlikely or is not economically feasible;  
		(2) parent is self-employed;  
		(3) parent relies on sources of income that are not subject to garnishment under state or federal law; or  
		(4) agency determines that an alternative payment arrangement is likely to be as effective as income withholding and is in the best interests of the state and of the children.
