What is income withholding? How does it work?
An income withholding order requires the employer to deduct child support from the employee’s paycheck. An Order/Notice to Withhold Income for Child Support is sent to the non-custodial parent’s employer and tells the employer when to begin, how much to deduct, and where to send the support amount withheld. If you are an employer, the Hawaii Employers’ Guide to Income Withholding provides a brief summary of your legal responsibility under the Hawaii Revised Statutes Section 571-52, Section 576E-1, and Section 576E-16.
