Learning Objective

  • Explore child support requirements, including deduction limits, deadlines, filing procedures, administrative fees, and penalties under federal and state law.
  • Identify requirements for processing medical support notices and determining garnishment priorities among support orders, medical support notices, and arrearages.
  • Recognize differences between state and federal child support requirements, and best practices for payroll processing of garnishments.
  • Calculate withholding amounts and prioritize distribution for employees with multiple garnishments, including guidelines for terminated employees.
  • Analyze laws governing child support withholding and processing, including the CCPA and UIFSA, and explore electronic handling via EFT.
  • Discuss best practices for child support withholding, including communication with employees and issuing parties, and transitioning to paperless processes.

Course Overview

Deductions from employee salaries are required by law. You are required to deduct any applicable federal, state, and local income taxes as well as Social Security and Medicare contributions, as well as any state unemployment tax that may be imposed under local legislation.

This course now works through examples of how to determine the actual withholding from wages for child support.  This includes doing examples for employees with one, two, and three child support orders in effect, including arrearages. Child support orders are not necessarily processed in a vacuum, and the employee may have other garnishments in effect.

Major topics covered in this CE Payroll webinar:

  • Ensure proper processing of child support orders in the payroll department by understanding legal requirements and priorities.
  • Prioritize all types of garnishments, demonstrating that child support typically takes precedence.
  • Understand federal child support laws and regulations and how states have adopted them.
  • Properly process Income Withholding Orders (IWOs) by determining if an order is "regular on its face" and creating communication templates.
  • Implement best practices for reconciling and paying child support to ensure accurate withholding and payments.
  • Review and process National Medical Support Notices in compliance with withholding limits and employer requirements.

In this webinar, we will also cover how to process child support orders with other types of garnishments focusing on bankruptcies and creditor garnishments. Special situations occur when processing child support. It will concentrate on how to process what is known as lump sums and how to handle terminating as well as rehiring employees. 

Join this CE Tax webinar to understand how to go paperless with processing child support through a discussion of the e-IWO program and paying child support by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT).
