What if my ex-spouse moves out of state?

Interstate Situations

Q. What if the non-residential parent cannot be found locally?

A. Our office will use multiple resources to attempt to locate the non-custodial parent.  When the non-custodial parent’s social security number is known, the CSEA is able to use the State and Federal Parent Locator Service, the National Directory of New Hires, the Financial Institution Data Match, and the Federal Case Registry to assist in locating the non-residential parent.  The CSEA can also request a child support agency in another state to search for the non-custodial parent. With the increase in automated location tools, it is becoming more difficult for non-paying parents to hide from their child support obligations and the agencies that enforce them.

Q. I’ve heard there is a law called UIFSA. What does this law do?

A. Our Child Support Lawyers can explain the two ways this can be done. They may choose to simply send a withholding order directly to an employer anywhere in the country. If needed, they may also choose to register your support order for enforcement, only in the state where he works.

Q. I was divorced in Ohio but then moved to Tennessee. My ex-spouse moved to Florida and another order was established. Can I enforce both orders?

A. The UIFSA law requires the determining of one “Controlling Order.” See the Determining a Controlling Order part of the Interstate section for a description of the rules for choosing this order. Once that order is determined, it is the only order that can be enforced or modified.
