How can I receive child support from a parent living in another state?
If you are living in New York and someone who lives in another state is legally obligated to provide child support, you can submit a request to the other state’s Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA). You can contact the non-custodial parent’s local CSEA office directly or ask your local CSEA for assistance. The CSEA in the state where the non-custodial parent lives can then take the necessary steps to establish and enforce a child support order, such as: • Establishing paternity (if necessary) • Setting a child support obligation • Enforcing the child support order. Once a CSEA in one state establishes a child support order, they can request another state’s CSEA to enforce the order. This process is referred to as Interstate Child Support Enforcement. If you are having trouble getting your child support payments, you can contact your local New York Child Support Enforcement Agency to get the assistance you need. They can help you understand what steps you need to take to ensure your child support is paid in a timely manner.
