Federal Parent Locator Service (FPLS)

The Federal Parent Locator Service (FPLS) is a tool created by the U.S. government to help locate parents who owe child support or are involved in custody cases. It connects various databases to find parents' addresses, employment, and other essential information. The FPLS assists states in enforcing child support orders and ensuring that children receive the financial support they need. This service is especially important for custodial parents seeking assistance and for courts aiming to uphold family law.
