Families
The child support program does more than collect support for families. We find the noncustodial parent, establish fatherhood, and work with families to set affordable child support orders.
Need a job? Need health care for your child? We work with other programs to help you find what you need.
Whether you’re a mom, dad, grandparent or foster parent, we’ll help make child support a reliable source of income for your children.
How can I access payment information on my child support account?
The federal child support office does not process child support cases. Please contact your local child support office for information on your case, including payment information.
