Child Support Enforcement Caseload

Cómo ayuda este programa

Child support services help children receive financial support from both parents. This support can help families stay stable and meet basic needs.

Los socios federales, estatales y locales trabajan juntos para gestionar estos servicios.

Tipos de casos

Operating under Title IV-D of the Social Security Act, Child Support handles two types of cases based on a family’s situation:

• Familias que reciben financiación de la Asistencia Temporal para Familias Necesitadas (TANF)
• Families not receiving TANF (Non-TANF)

Some families choose to handle child support privately with legal help.

Cómo se gestionan los pagos

El estado es responsable de recaudar, rastrear y distribuir los pagos de mantención infantil en muchos casos.

When possible, payments are taken directly from a parent’s paycheck. This helps provide consistent and timely support for children.

Notas de datos

• TANF (Title IV-D): cases receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funding 
• No TANF: casos que no reciben financiación TANF
• No Título IV-D: casos gestionados de forma privada, generalmente a través de un abogado
