Current as of January 02, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Sec. 7.5. (a) An income payor that is required to withhold income under this chapter shall:

(1) forward income withheld for the payment of current or past due child support as directed by an income withholding order to the state central collection unit at the time that an obligor is paid;

(2) include a statement that identifies the:

(A) cause number for each obligee;

(B) Indiana support enforcement tracking system (ISETS) or its successor statewide automated support enforcement system case number for each obligee;

(C) name of each obligor and the obligor's Social Security number;

(D) name of each obligee with the amount of the withheld income forwarded by the income payor;  and

(E) date on which the amount was withheld from the obligor's income;  and

(3) begin withholding income not later than the first pay date after fourteen (14) days following the date the order for income withholding is received by the income payor.

(b) An income payor may retain, in addition to the amount of income forwarded to the state central collection unit, a fee of not more than two dollars ($2) each time the income payor forwards income to the state central collection unit.  If an income payor retains a fee under this subsection, the income payor shall reduce the amount of income withheld for the payment of current and past due child support, if necessary to avoid exceeding the maximum amount permitted to be withheld under 15 U.S.C. 1673(b).
