What the Ohio Child Support Program Can and Can’t Do

Can:

Locate the non-custodial parent

The Ohio Child Support Program (OCSP) can utilize numerous resources to track down a non-custodial parent in order to receive payment for a child support order.

Establish paternity

Legal paternity must be established in order to initiate a child support order. OCSP can help you through the process.

Establish a child support order and medical support

OCSP can help you through the process of setting out obligations in your child support order.

Review and adjust a support order

Ohio child support orders may be reviewed every 36 months. If you meet certain qualifications, you may be able to apply for a review earlier.

Enforce a child support order

OCSP can also utilize various strategies and resources in order to make sure that the non-custodial parent keeps paying child support.

Collect and disburse payments

OCSP can collect child support payments through Child Support Payment Central (CSPC).

Can’t:

Help resolve custody or visitation issues

OCSP does not get involved with custody or visitation disputes. These issues are best taken up with a private family law attorney. Establish alimony or spousal support

Establishing alimony requires a private attorney and is not a service that OCSP provides.

Open a case for a first-time pregnant woman

OCSP can’t take a case with a pregnant woman who has no other children.

Preside over divorce

A private divorce attorney must be sought if you need help with divorce proceedings.
