Your question does not make sense. If you are owed child support, then the ex-spouse will continue to pay that to the child support office that enforces it, and you will be sent a check by them to whatever address you provide them. You do not register a custody order in another state. Instead, you generally must have the permission of the court that gave you custody in order to take a child out of that court's jurisdiction and move to another state. visitation with the ex-spouse would be affected if you move out of state. That is why you need the court's permission.
