Noncustodial Parent

Child Support Program services are for both parents—custodial parties and noncustodial parents (NCPs). Noncustodial parents can apply for services, or ask to modify child support already ordered. Local child support agencies are an important resource for NCPs. By working closely with the local agency, NCPs can avoid or minimize issues that may arise regarding their child support case and/or child support payments.

Applications for service are available at the local office or may be downloaded from our websiteCompleted applications must be mailed or dropped off at the local child support agency office to be processed.

Under California law, NCPs are required to pay their court-ordered child support on time and in full. If you cannot meet the full obligation or cannot make the court-ordered payments contact the local child support agency as soon as possible to avoid or minimize any adverse actions that may be taken. Unpaid child support will still be owed—with interest.
