ATTENTION
Many custodial parents wait years for help.
As soon as you complete enrollment, our work begins immediately. Your case gets the attention it deserves.
COMMUNICATION
Can be inconsistent and sporadic.
Get updates on your case 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, online or by telephone.
RESOURCES
Lacks resources due to limited funding, continued cutbacks, and hiring freezes.
We grow with our caseload. The more clients we have, the more people we hire to work their cases.
PRIORITY
Collecting child support is just one of many functions that over-burdened state workers must handle.
Our only job is to collect your child support.
RESULTS
Over $115 billion owed.
We've collected millions for thousands of families - most sought help from government first with limited - or no - results.
