Child Support Enforcement, which is managed through the Virginia Department of Social Services, aims to promote strong, self-reliant families by delivering child support services, as provided by law through the location of non-custodial parents, establishment of paternity and orders for support, enforcement of orders, collection of child and medical support, review and adjustment, and distribution of child support.
It is required by law that all employers send the name and social security number of every newly hired employee to the Virginia Department of Social Child Support Enforcement Services - Child Support Enforcement. When Child Support Enforcement receives that information, they check to see who has outstanding child support payments. If you do, your paycheck will automatically have a withholding.
A withholding is not the only method of collecting. To pay off your past due payments, Child Support Enforcement has the power to:
