What if the employees available disposable income is less than the pay period amount noted on the order?
Cash support (including spousal support) is withheld first, health care coverage premiums second, and “other” is last. If the employee has multiple notices, cash support (current and arrears) for all cases is withheld first on a proportionate-share basis, then equally apply any remaining amounts to all orders with arrearage. If any income is left after cash support is withheld, then withhold for the health care coverage, then the “other” would follow.
