California Central Registry (CCR) California Parent Locator Service (CPLS). CCR was implemented in 1988 to comply with Federal regulation requiring each State to provide a single point for the submission of interstate child support enforcement cases. CCR analysts examine all incoming child support enforcement cases for legal sufficiency, request additional information where necessary, and forward the cases to the appropriate local FSD for services. CCR maintains an ongoing liaison between the 58 California FSDs and the various child support enforcement agencies of the initiating States. CPLS operates an automated system and has the authority to access State and Federal data files to locate absent nonsupporting parents and their assets. This information is used by the California District Attorneys’ FSDs to aid in the establishment of paternity and support and in the enforcement and collection of support. CPLS is also responsible for California’s participation in the Internal Revenue Service’s full collection program.The Franchise Tax Board which acts as a collection agency for delinquent child support.The Child Support program is also supported by the State’s Integrated Database (IDB).

Application Future Plans |
Major administrative and program changes for the California Child Support program were enacted at the end of the 1999 legislative session and will be rolled out over the next few years. These include the Child support administration being moved to the Department of Child Support and the child support collections being moved to the Franchise Tax Board. The procurement of a statewide child support system will be one of the most important IT decisions in 1999-2000 with the Franchise Tax Board in the critical procurement role. |
