I have stated MULTIPLE times that I am WELL AWARE the amount may go down, and that is that is what the court rules, there will be nothing else to do. I am not afraid of that. It is NOT ok for him to pay less, and if he wants to pay less then HE needs to do it.
I HONESTLY do not know if it will be lowered, increased or reaming the same. NONE of that matters, there is nothing I can do about it, but legally he needs to have it reviewed or pay the amount do - I do not know how you cannot see that?? My unwillingness, as you call it, to file is soley based on the facts - if he wants a review, if he is struggling financially it is his responsibility to take care of it - tell me I am wrong??
No I did not fill out the application, I called and spoke to them about it.
What is BAER??

I AGREE that if HE wants a REVIEW, he has to file for it. What you cannot seem to GRASP is that if YOU want it ENFORCED, YOU need to file through CSE.

Thank you Gr8Dad I feel as tho we are more in line now.
He wants a review and said he would file one, when he found out the work involved he tried to convince me to do it for him. Which I won't request a review for him.
You are right again that if I want his amount enforced, I will have to do something. I thought my only option was through court, but I will contact DCSE again and make sure I understood correctly.
I am sorry your ex hasn't paid, but even at 2/3 it isn't what is best for the child - that is what I am supposed to make sure he has.
thank you!

First of all, it will require more than a PHONE CALL. You do NOT need a court order, it SPECIFICALLY states that MOST of the time it is done ADMINISTRATIVELY in the office. YOU have to fill out the request, he CANNOT DO IT. You can download the application, mail it to them and they will start the process.
As far as 2/3rds of the amount, he TOLD you he was having money trouble. He said he will (and HAS in the past) paid you the proper amount. So fill out the paperwork, apply for enforcement, and go from there.

Ok maybe we HAVE been on the same page but confused; the whole point of me starting posts here has been to gather info to find out how to handle enforcement of payments.
I know I have to do it and I am trying to figure out how...I thought court was my only option, but I plan to call DCSE again thanks to this board!

As gr8 suggested you should start the process and fill out the application first. It will ask you for a copy of the court order, I understand the person you spoke with said you cannot use a circuit court order, BUT I would furnish that order. Start the process, it will cost nothing, but time and see what happens.
Once we filled out the application and gave them a copy of the order- they took care of the rest! We get $25/year deducted for their services. We can get online and look at how much the CP owes, how much they have paid and how much has been sent to us. They deduct the $25 fee right from the NCP's payment. So if you are getting $100/week- one week you may get $75. At the time of application it may ask you on whether the NCP is up to date in payments, etc. If they can only go through and garnish presently then at least that is a start.

AND with the number of NCP's NOT paying any amount at all, chances are that your receipt of 2/3 will put you on a back burner. They are likely to tell you to be happy you're getting something. May not be fair, but it's a good chance that is what will happen.

Hi all,
I wanted to say thank you for those of you who encouraged me to simply fill out the application with the division of child support enforcement, rather than go on what I was told in a single phone call.
I submitted my application for services which was accepted. I now have a case thought them. I am unsure of what the steps are...they must have sent my Ex a letter though, because I have received some awful ugly texts from him. I do not know if they are garnishing his wages, or indicating he needs to pay them directly...anyone know the steps on that?
Since I know G8tDad will ask, in my application I detailed the current child care situation as well!
It is nice to have a place to gather information and I appreciate the input from each of you!
