Typically, these types of letters come from the Child Support Enforcement Division of the Florida Department of Revenue, not HRS. It may be that she has filed a claim with the state saying that he hasn't paid his normal support. He should take the letter to a family law attorney.
He should speak with his attorney.
HOpe you have receipts for all your support payments. Paying in cash is not going to help you. If you have been paying and have receipts, get an attorney.
