Our Compliance Enforcement Units will work to keep the non-custodial parent paying. 

Some of the enforcement methods we use include: 

• Income Deduction - Payments are deducted from the non-custodial  parent's paycheck. 
• IRS Intercepts - Tax refunds can be intercepted. 
• Freezing Bank Accounts - A computer search is done for non-custodial parents who have bank accounts with participating financial institutions. If a match is found, the bank account may be frozen. 
• Lottery Intercept - Winnings of $600 or more from the Florida Lottery  can be intercepted. 
• Liens - In certain cases, courts can place liens on real estate and  personal property. 
• Consumer Reporting Agencies - Information about delinquent child support is given to credit reporting agencies, possibly affecting the non-custodial parent's credit rating. 
• Suspension of Licenses - Driver's license, vehicle registration, and professional business licenses can be suspended or denied. 
• Referral for Contempt - The case can be referred to Court, where the non-custodial parent could face penalties such as jail time. 
• Passport Denial - Non-custodial parents can be denied US passports if their certified past due amounts exceed $2,500.
