Child Support Collection

Child support collection is the process of legally ensuring that a parent who has financial responsibility for a child receives the agreed-upon or court-ordered payments from the other parent. These payments help cover the child's basic needs, such as food, clothing, education, and healthcare. Collection methods can include wages being garnished directly from an income, withholding from government benefits, or other legal actions to secure regular, reliable payments. The goal is to support the child's well-being by making sure financial support is consistent and enforceable.
