Text

The payment of aid creates a debt due and owing to the department by the parent or parents; provided, however, that in cases in which a court has ordered support incident to a divorce decree or any other order for child support, the debt shall be limited to the amount specified in such court decree or court order. The liability for said debt to the department shall then apply only with respect to the support payments owed for the period of time during which aid is granted and shall conform and comply with such court decree or court order and shall be handled by the department in such a manner as to conform and comply with requirements of the Social Security Act and amendments thereto.
