AI Summary

  • All child support payments must be directed to the State Disbursement Unit, eliminating the previous option for courts to designate county officers for payment collection
  • Every court order for child support automatically constitutes an application for federal Title IV-D child support enforcement services
  • Courts must transmit child support orders and contact information (names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses) for both parties to the local child support agency where the order was issued
  • Support obligees may opt out of Title IV-D child support services by submitting a voluntary case closure request to their local agency, unless state or federal law requires participation
  • The bill imposes a state-mandated local program, requiring state reimbursement to local agencies if the Commission on State Mandates determines increased costs
