Filed When:

by the courts to pay child support) fails to do so and is at
least 30 days in arrears (past due)
What Type of
Florida Child Support Case Do You Have?

receive child support payments directly from the obligor or
non-custodial parent. The Florida Department of Revenue is not
involved in these types of cases. If the obligee or their
attorney has filed a motion to enforce child support or a motion
of contempt against you, you take the matter very seriously and
respond in the appropriate matter.
