Section 660-3-16-.06 - Administratively Adding An Amount Toward Arrears

(1) In a situation where a child support arrearage exists and the order does not address an amount toward that arrearage, the State IV-D agency has the authority to increase the amount of monthly support payments for the purpose of collecting past-due support.

(2) The procedure in which an amount is ordered toward the arrears may be done at the same time the Administrative Order/Notice to Withhold Income For Child Support is issued directly to the employer.

(3) The amount added toward the arrearage should be twenty-five percent of the current support amount.

(4) In arrearage cases only where current is no longer due, the amount toward the arrears should be the amount that was previously ordered toward current.
