Can an employer charge the employee a fee for processing the withholding?
In Oregon a fee of up to $5.00 per month, per case, can be charged to each employee. This fee is deducted from the employee’s remaining income and not the support payment unless withholding is 50% of the employee’s disposable income. [In this case, withhold the fee from the amount you send to the issuer of the Order/Notice.] Oregon law states that the amount withheld, including the employer’s fee, cannot exceed 50% of the employee’s disposable income.
