Changing how child support is paid
My ex-husband is currently paying child support by personal check. On three separate occasions the check has been no good. He is not on a consistent pay schedule. Is it possible to now have him pay thru DCSE instead of paying me directly, and if so, what steps need to be taken?

Re: Changing how child support is paid
Yes, contact your nearest DCSE office and arrange
to secure an application for services which will include your executing (signing) a legal document called an "Assignment of Rights" which will give DCSE the legal authority to act as the collection and enforcement agent for your child support.
