Garnishing wages for Florida child support

Posted by Nydia Streets of Streets Law in Florida Child Support

A Florida Income Withholding Order can be entered to require that a parent pay support through the State Disbursement Unit. This provides a method for the State to monitor payments and to have payments involuntarily garnished from the parent’s paycheck to ensure it is received by the other parent. This type of order is required to be entered in a case involving child support unless the parents agree otherwise.
