Legal Question in Immigration Law in Florida

Immigration problem with child support issues

I'm planning to marry a citizen of the U.K. and I would like to immigrate to the U.K. but I have been denied a passport because of my child support obligations. It was denied because I owe back support in excess of $5000. I know the U.S. goverment has a child support enforcement agreement with the British goverment, but I still can't get the passport with this obligation in my background. I don't want to circumvent the law, I want to know what I can do to marry and move to the U.K. Anything you can answer in this matter would be appreciated. Thank you for your effort.
