Uniform Inter-State Family Support Act

The Uniform Inter-State Family Support Act (UIFSA) is a law that helps ensure that child support and spousal support payments are enforced uniformly across state lines in the United States. It provides a legal framework for establishing, modifying, and enforcing support obligations when one parent or spouse lives in a different state than the one where the support order was issued. UIFSA aims to simplify the process, reduce conflicts, and protect the rights of children and families, making sure they receive the financial support they need regardless of where they live.
