Why does the amount of the check I receive change?
There are a number of reasons why payment amounts may vary.
If the payments are being deducted from the noncustodial parent's wages, it is
possible that his/her work hours vary. If the total support obligation cannot
be paid from the noncustodial parent's wages, only a percentage of his/her
wages can be deducted from the support owed. The law does not allow a person's
entire wages to be withheld for support.
If a noncustodial parent has more than one support
obligation, any payments made by an employer must be pro-rated among all the
obligations.
Payments may also be reduced to pay for fees owed to OCSE by
the custodial parent.
