Introduced Text

Modernizing child support by adjusting income attribution and enforcement actions.

Modernizing child support by adjusting income attribution and enforcement actions. Child support orders may attribute income based on the state minimum wage unless evidence of alternative income is presented. Unemployed or underemployed noncustodial parents receive a 60-day grace period before enforcement actions. License suspension enforcement is withheld for those with incomes at or below 70% of the county median. Annual reports on child support are mandated to be published online by October 15.
