Federal Child Support Enforcement (FCSE)

Federal Child Support Enforcement (FCSE) is a program in the United States that helps ensure non-custodial parents pay child support to support their children. It operates through a partnership between federal, state, and local governments to locate non-paying parents, establish legal payment orders, and collect payments. The program includes services like wage garnishment, tax refund interception, and asset seizure to enforce compliance. Ultimately, FCSE aims to provide financial stability for children by ensuring that both parents contribute to their upbringing, regardless of their living situation or relationship with each other.
