Child Support

questions & answers

Question: My ex got 1200 taken out of his federal return because of arrears, where does that money go?

Answer: When money is withheld from a federal income tax refund for child support arrears, it is usually based on action taken by the Arizona Department of Economic Security, Division of Child Support Services (DCSS).  It is DCSS that has the power to seize income tax refunds for delinquent child support.  The money should then be send to the Support Payment Clearing House.  It should then be sent to the parent who has custody of the child and is entitled to receive child support.
