We ensure that payments are calculated fairly according to legal guidelines while considering your family’s unique circumstances. Our goal is to provide stability and security for children while respecting cultural and community values.
Yes. TCSS can review your child support order for modification to ensure it reflects your current situation. Changes such as a shift in income, employment status, or the needs of the child can be considered. Our team will guide you through the process and work with courts to adjust the order as needed.

We can arrange direct income withholding from wages, benefits, or other sources, and take additional actions such as intercepting tax refunds, placing liens, or levies when necessary.

If payments are missed, TCSS can take steps to enforce the order. This may include requesting income withholding so support is automatically deducted from wages, unemployment benefits, or other income sources.
Income withholding is a process where child support payments are automatically deducted from the non-custodial parent’s income, including salaries, unemployment benefits, or per capita payments. TCSS works with Tribal and State agencies to set up this process, ensuring payments are collected and sent directly to the custodial parent without delays.
Yes. If income withholding is not sufficient or other income sources are available, TCSS can place levies on bank accounts, intercept Federal and State tax refunds, and file liens on worker’s compensation or other awards. These measures are designed to protect your children’s financial support and help families access the resources they need.

A child support order may need to be reviewed if there are changes in income, family circumstances, or other factors that affect the ability to pay or the financial needs of the child.
TCSS reviews existing child support orders upon request and guides families through the modification process, ensuring payments are fair, accurate, and in compliance with current guidelines.
Yes. Depending on the circumstances, a review may result in either an increase or a decrease in monthly child support to better reflect the needs of the child and the financial situation of both parents.

TCSS leverages a variety of resources, including local, State, and Federal databases, as well as internet search tools. This combination allows our team to gather accurate information to locate non-custodial parents efficiently.
Custodial parents can provide critical information such as previous addresses, workplaces, phone numbers, or known contacts. This firsthand insight is often the most effective way to help TCSS locate the absent parent quickly.
Finding the absent parent is essential to enforce child support orders, ensure timely payments, and protect the financial and legal rights of children. It also allows families to access the support and resources they are entitled to while maintaining accountability.
