Paternity is legally establishing who the father is of any child. It is very important for all children to understand their true identity. Other things can also come in to play, like benefit entitlements and the medical history of the father’s family. You must establish paternity to obtain a child support order.
After an order is in place, there are many ways to enforce that order. Some of these methods include:
If someone is self-employed they must pay their support on their own. Failure to do so may result in negative actions.
Interstate cases are when one parent lives in other state. Both states work in conjunction to ensure that child support is paid and received. Contact Stark County Child Support if you need assistance with an interstate case.
In any situation always remember that the first step of action is to contact your case worker. Ask questions about your case when in doubt. It is your case, and you are entitled to certain information. Proper commutation is the key to a successful relationship with the Stark County Child Support system. Never be afraid to contact them with your issues, because they are there to help.
