New Hire Reporting
The new hire reporting process helps child support agencies issue income withholding orders quickly. Employers must report newly hired employees shortly after the date of hire to a designated state agency. OCSE and states match new hire reports against child support records to locate parents who owe child support. The matching process is especially helpful in interstate cases—often the most difficult cases to resolve—in which a parent and child live in different states.
