Key Takeaways

  • •The state pays its part of child support payments as per Section 15200.
  • •The department tries to avoid using certain funds for child support if it would cause problems for participants.
  • •Counties pay their own costs for running child support programs from their allocated funds.

The state makes sure to pay its share of the child support on time, using the right funds so the parent doesn’t face any extra rules or limits. The county covers its own costs for managing the program.
