Our office represents the interests of the State of Oregon. We do not represent either party. For legal advice please contact your private attorney.
Our office cannot guarantee that you will receive regular and timely support payments; however we will make all reasonable efforts to assist you.
When you apply for services the non-custodial parent will be advised to stop making payments directly to you, and instead, make payments through the Child Support Program.
Each case is different, with its own set of facts and circumstances. Most of our processes are handled administratively (outside of court) and take a minimum of 90 days. If hearings are requested, a party is difficult to serve, or if paternity testing is requested it can take up to six months or longer.
