What to Know About Active Duty and Child Support
- Tell the friend of the court that you have been called to active military duty.
- If your child support is deducted from your paycheck, have your employer contact the friend of the court.
- If your income will be lower while on active duty, ask the friend of the court if you are
eligible to have your support order modified to reflect your new, lower income.
- If your military deployment requires a passport and you owe more than $5,000 in child support
arrearages, contact the friend of the court to discuss special payment options that will preserve
your eligibility for obtaining a passport.
- If you are required to provide medical coverage for your child and it is not available from your
employer while you are on active duty, enroll your child in TRICARE, the health coverage plan
for military dependents.
