• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Art. 16: FAMILY LAW: SUPPORT OF CHILDREN AND
• Ch. 15: Child Support Income Withholding Orders

Text

5. (a) An income payor that is required to
withhold income under this chapter shall:
(1) forward income withheld for the payment of current or past
due child support as directed by an income withholding order to
the state central collection unit at the time that an obligor is paid;
(2) include a statement that identifies the:
(A) cause number for each obligee;
(B) Indiana support enforcement tracking system (ISETS) or its
successor statewide automated support enforcement system
case number for each obligee;
(C) name of each obligor and the obligor's Social Security
number;
(D) name of each obligee with the amount of the withheld
income forwarded by the income payor; and
(E) date on which the amount was withheld from the obligor's
income; and
(3) begin withholding income not later than the first pay date after
fourteen (14) days following the date the order for income
withholding is received by the income payor.
(b) An income payor may retain, in addition to the amount of
income forwarded to the state central collection unit, a fee of not more
than two dollars ($2) each time the income payor forwards income to
the state central collection unit. If an income payor retains a fee under
this subsection, the income payor shall reduce the amount of income
withheld for the payment of current and past due child support, if
necessary to avoid exceeding the maximum amount permitted to be
withheld under 15 U.S.C. 1673(b).
