Can child support payments be paid directly between former spouses or must they go through a state agency?
The Texas Family Code now requires that child support payments be made through the Texas Child Support Disbursement Unit. Accounts with the TCSDU are set up when a particular form is completed at the time a court order for child support is entered. Payments received are recorded for tracking purposes and then forwarded on to the custodial parent. Turnaround time for recording and forwarding payments is surprisingly quick. For more information on the TCSDU and their payment system, please see their website at www.info.txcsdu.com.
