Maryland HB142 modifies child support earnings withholding limits and procedures.
Maryland HB142 revises the laws governing child support earnings withholdings. It sets limits on the amount of disposable earnings that can be withheld for child support and arrearage payments. Specifically, it caps the withholding at 25% of the obligor's disposable earnings if their income does not exceed 250% of the federal poverty guidelines, unless they were found to be voluntarily impoverished. The bill also mandates that earnings withholding orders or notices include specific information about the withholding limits.
