Information Regarding Child Support Payments
If my employer temporarily closes, will they still send in my child support payment?
Your employer is responsible for withholding child support from any earnings you receive and sending those withheld payments to the Wyoming Child Support Program. If you are experiencing unpaid time off, we recommend you make other arrangements to pay your support obligation.
If the child support office that manages my case is closed, do I still have to make my payment?
Yes. Please check out the MAKE A PAYMENT section of our website if you have any questions about how to make a payment. Please read the FAQ “If my employer temporarily closes, will they still send in my child support payment?” if your employer currently withholds your child support payment.
If the child support office that manages my case closes, will I still get my payment?
The Wyoming Child Support Program is committed to getting support to families. Processing payments is one of our critical services. We have a plan in place to make sure critical services continue. If we have office or workload impacts due to the COVID-19 virus, we will post updates on this page.
How will the COVID-19 Stimulus Bill affect my child support?
The payment will be offset only by past-due child support. The Bureau of the Fiscal Service will send you a notice if an offset occurs.
Should I expect a delay in my child support payments due to COVID-19?
We do not anticipate a delay in the processing of any child support payments received due to the coronavirus. Our State Disbursement Unit and payment processing teams have a strong plan in place to ensure that payments continue to be processed and disbursed timely.
