The Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA)

The Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA) is a law that helps ensure child support orders are enforced across different states. It establishes consistent procedures for establishing, modifying, and enforcing child support obligations when parents live in different states. UIFSA reduces conflicts between state laws and provides a clear process for states to work together, making it easier to secure support and protect the rights of children and custodial parents regardless of where they live.
