my apologies - guess the IRS breathing down my back has me a bit on edge.

This is not legal advice but is merely my own personal experience when dealing with a similar situation in IL.

One of my husband's past employers did this same thing where the CS was withheld but then not sent to the state in a timely manner.  We pulled a copy of the withholding order (which is what the employer had on file too) and it clearly stated the State's guidelines which the employer MUST follow.  IL has a guideline that requires the employer to send the CS to the state disbursement unit within 7 business days of the pay date that the amount was withheld from the employee's check.  If an employer chooses not to follow these guidelines, then they are subject to fees from the State.

You should check into your State's guidelines to see if there is anything that would help you.  If the State has guidelines and your employer is not following them, then the State will be the ones to address this issue with the employer.
