Section 144-351-21-3 - PAYMENT AGREEMENT

For purposes of this chapter, if an obligor demonstrates a present inability to pay all past-due child support, the Department, upon request or upon its own initiative, shall enter into a reasonable payment agreement with the obligor that takes into account the obligor's income, assets, reasonable expenses and ability to borrow. An obligor who is unable to pay all past-due support may come into compliance with the support order by executing a written payment agreement with the Division and by complying with that agreement. A condition of a written payment agreement must be that the obligor pay the current child support when due. Before a written agreement is executed, the obligor shall disclose fully the obligor's financial circumstances, including income from all sources, assets, liabilities and work history for the past year and provide documentation.

Failure to comply with a written payment agreement is grounds for license revocation unless the obligor notifies the Division that the obligor is unable to comply with the agreement and provides the Division with evidence of the obligor's current financial circumstances to support the claim.
