Child Support Issues / CSRU Keeps Taking
Dec 12, 2005, 11:57:11 AM
I am a good father, Live in Illinois and have 2 girls ages 14 & 17 that live in Iowa. My X recently went to court and adjusted a mutually agreed order that stood for 13 years. This effectly raised my support obligation more than 50% per pay period. I was unhappy that the X raised the support, but whatever. My problem is that since the new order has been in effect I routinely am served with a notice that I am delinquint in my payments and that according to the Federal government that my taxes will be levied to satisfy the delinquincy.

Facts:
#1. I have complied with all court appointed payment schedules and procedures.

#2. I have discussed the issue with the CSRU supervisors (To the Highest level) and they concur that I am current on all support payments.

The issue is the Iowa CSRU database. My Employer deducts the COURT APPOINTED amount from my pay check "BI-Monthly" thru an agency (ADP) and sends to CSRU. By the time the money is logged into the CSRU database the account is delinquint.

Being told that this is due to the court order being X amount "WEEKLY" and the payment schedule being "BI-Monthly" which was setup with my employer & CSRU.

I am given no restitution other than "Well that's the way the system is....Live with it".

It would mean that more than $600.00 of my return would be ceased by CSRU and applied to the account. Then when "I" realize that it has been taken I must appeal the the action and could be 7-8 weeks before I will see any decision or money.......By the way it will be less the "Database related" shortage for that year (which I never owed). This will continue yearly due to the Weekly vs Bi-monthly situation.

Sorry......But due to the recent increase in support I am currently loosing my battle with income & debt and could be facing bankrupcy. Not to mention I feel as tho I am being penalized for being a responsible father & provider.

Can anyone give me advise on whether I should seek counsel on this matter against CSRU?

Or do they sit at the right hand of god and should consider myself fortunate that I don't already live in cardboard box, cause that's where I'm headed. (sorry for the last comment.....fustrated)

Pls Help
