Why does my monthly payment sometimes vary and why might it be different than other family members?

Many factors may contribute to your payment amount such as market conditions, fluctuating commodity prices, production volumes, and well downtime. Payment amount disparity between family members may occur because ownership between family members is not equal, one party has not provided GME with a W-9, some family members may own interest in other properties in addition to those commonly owned, or some family members may be subject to different state taxes based on their resident state. Additionally, if a family member has been in suspense or has had checks returned and reissued this can cause the monthly payment amount to vary.
