I am applying for public assistance. Do I have to provide
information about the father?
To be eligible for assistance programs through DHS, you must
provide information to help to identify the father and collect child support
from him. Any child support collected will be used to help support your
children - going either directly to you or to repay the state for your
assistance grant. Your child support caseworker will explain how the child
support collected will be applied.
If you are afraid that the father will hurt you or your
child, you will need to contact your DHS caseworker and explain your concerns.
If DHS determines that you have good cause not to cooperate with OCSE, they
will notify OCSE to close your case.
