HB 1227: Child support orders/notices

Regarding cost savings and efficiencies in mailing notices of possible license suspension for noncompliance with child support orders.

Summary

  • Authorizes the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) to serve a notice of intent to certify a responsible parent as not in compliance with a child support obligation by first-class mail, rather than certified mail, in certain circumstances.
  • Eliminates the requirement that a copy of the responsible parent's child support order be included with the notice, but requires the DSHS to provide a copy of the order upon request of the responsible parent.
