SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Child support order payee; change in physical custody of child; child support orders involving the Department of Social Services or the Division of Child Support Enforcement. Provides that, when a child support order payee no longer has physical custody of a child, the Department of Social Services shall have the authority to direct child support payments to a custodial parent who has physical custody of a child in any child support matter in which an assignment of rights has been made to the Department or an application for services has been made with the Division of Child Support Enforcement. The bill requires the Department to send notice of the redirection of payments to the prior custodial parent. The bill further requires the Department to file a petition to modify the child support order within 10 days of such notice to the prior custodial parent, provided that a petition is not already pending and that there is a court order regarding such child support.
