What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Illinois
Recently, my ex and I have agreed to a revised Joint Parenting Agreement that now includes child support since she is moving away with the kids. The previous Agreement was since we had the kids roughly equal times and paid roughly equal expenses that there was no child support on either side.
However, I do not see a specific child support order or withholding order in the paperwork from the lawyer. And the court's online system only lists the Parenting Agreement as being ordered. Is there a way to get my employer to take it out of my check? I could wait and see if somehow they get notified to withhold but I'd rather not get behind on my payments if my employer wasn't told to withhold.
I'm thinking of using the online system that ILSDU says I can use or send in a paper check. Will they know where to send the payment if they haven't been given the specific Illinois Order to Withhold Income for Child Support?
Just not sure what to do exactly. Really don't want to get behind but don't want to be double billed either, if that makes sense.
