What is proration?
A. Federal and state laws require that payments from payors with more than one child support case be divided (or “prorated”) among all of their cases. When NCCSCC processes a payment, the money is divided among ALL of the payor’s child support cases. The amount of the payment that is applied to each case is determined by the amount owed as current support and the amount of past due child support owed on each case.
Proration is the method of taxation on a monthly basis for the portion of the calendar year personal property is owned and/or located in the jurisdiction. Chesterfield prorates vehicles, motorcycles and recreational vehicles. All other property is not prorated (i.e. boats, trailers, mobile homes, airplanes, and camper trailers).
