Which party does the agency represent during the administrative adjustment review process?
The support officer conducting the review neither represents nor advocates on behalf of either party. The support officer’s job during this review is simply to recalculate the support amount in accordance with the State’s current child support guidelines. It is also important to note here that the support officer conducting the review does not have the authority to deviate from Ohio’s child support guidelines. If you are requesting a deviation from the guidelines, such a matter would have to be handled in court with representation through private counsel.
