Once the full current child support obligation and arrearage order is satisfied for the month the administrative fees that are owed are then taken from the payment. Often this means that the custodial parent will get a smaller check at the end of the month when processing fees are deducted.
Please allow at least 14 days since the date that the check was issued then contact the Warren County CSEA for a stop payment affidavit. You can have all of your payments directly deposited to a bank account by completing a request form

Typically the process takes 2-4 weeks, and depends on your payroll schedule. You must continue to pay on your own until your wage withholding becomes effective.
The amount that can be withheld from an employee's disposable wages is limited by the Federal Consumer Credit Protection Act to 50 percent of disposable earnings if an obligated parent has a second family and 60 percent if there is no second family. These limits are each increased by 5 percent (to 55% and 65%) if payments are in arrears for a period equal to 12 weeks or more. This does not relieve you from paying your entire child support order.
The Warren County CSEA can assist with the set up of a direct withdrawal from your bank account. Please complete the form and submit it to the agency.
