Child Support Services agents help locate noncustodial parents (NCPs), establish the paternity of the child(ren), and establish a child support order. Once a court order has been established, incoming child support payments are receipted at Child Support Service Centralized Collections Operation, which manages the collection and disbursement of all ordered child support payments in the state. To enforce child support orders, Child Support Services agents can: withhold support payments from the Non-Custodial Parent wages, initiate legal action against the Non-Custodial Parent, and intercept the Non-Custodial Parent tax refunds.
