About Child Support Enforcement
|
The Division of Child Support Enforcement (DCSE) is proud of the work we do helping the children of Virginia. Last year, DCSE located 157,321 noncustodial parents, established 8,202 paternities and collected more than $608.5 million (an increase of 3.6 percent over the previous year) for the children of Virginia. Still, unpaid child support is a significant problem. To illustrate, visit our Web page which features some of Virginia's Most Wanted child support evaders. Currently, there are 363,000 child support cases in Virginia. Collectively, 484,000 of Virginia's children are owed more than $2.4 billion.

Parents & Guardians
If you are a noncustodial parent, you must make your child support payments
through DCSE if you have been ordered to do so. You will not receive credit for
child support payments made directly to the custodial parent after you have been
ordered to pay through DCSE, unless a court directs otherwise. Beginning July 1, 2008, quarterly statements of account will be mailed to noncustodial parents.
If you are a custodial parent, do not accept direct payments for child support
from the noncustodial parent after the noncustodial parent has been ordered
to pay child support through DCSE. If you receive a payment directly, do not
spend or cash the payment. Send the payment to DCSE.
