If I have my support payment withdrawn from my bank account, am I exempt from enforcement actions such as income withholding (also known as wage withholding or garnishment)?
No, automatic withdrawal does not exempt you from any enforcement actions allowable under state and federal law including, but not limited to, income withholding. If you are already paying support through income withholding, the income withholding will not terminate because you complete an Automatic Withdrawal Authorization. You should only complete an Automatic Withdrawal Authorization if you want to pay more support than your employer is already withholding. If the Child Support Enforcement (CSE) issues an income withholding order for support you owe after you have completed an Automatic Withdrawal Authorization, CSE cannot stop payments from being withdrawn from your bank account. If you no longer want support payments automatically withdrawn from your bank account, you must contact the FSPC at 1-888-761-3665 to request that your Automatic Withdrawal Authorization be terminated.
