How South Carolina's Child Support Enforcement Division Can Help You
The Child Support Enforcement Division (CSED) of South Carolina can assist you in all matters related to child support. Keep in mind that child custody is a separate issue that is not addressed by CSED. Below is a list of services provided by CSED to families that need help with child support.
Paternity Establishment
In order to receive child support, legal paternity must be
determined. CSED can help you determine paternity so that you can start
the process of establishing a child support order.
Parent Locating Services
If your child's non-custodial parent is not paying child support and
you do not know how to contact him or her, CSED has services that can
help you locate that parent so that a child support order can be
enforced.
Child Support Orders
CSED can assist you in establishing a child support order. They can also help you modify an existing child support order if you meet certain criteria.
Child Support Enforcement Measures
When a non-custodial parent is not fulfilling his or her monthly
child support obligation, CSED has a number of measures they can take
to help enforce the child support order, including wage withholding,
income tax refund interception, credit bureau reporting, license
revocation, contempt of court and other measures.
Anyone needing assistance with child support in South Carolina may apply for services with CSED. You can learn more about this process at http://www.state.sc.us/dss/csed/index.html.
