Hmmm. First off I didn't expect to TELL the DMV what to do. I asked for suggestions on how to get the state to take action.
I guess I will just sit here for another few years and expect nothing. Silly me to presume the courts or DCFS or I can do anything to get a man to support his child. Not sure why the courts and state boast they won't tolerate this but in reality they do nothing. And of course he should have a permit so he can drive his car illigally and without insurance in order to gamble and get tattoos and transport his drugs. I certainly do need a reality check!
Let's have a quick time-out, shall we?

I don't know if that's where you started, but if you scroll down there is a bit more in terms of describing what can happen.

Oddly enough, I didn't find your post presumptuous in the slightest. I do see a frustrated parent who is sick and tired of nothing happening to either punish OR motivate the other parent. Unfortunately, the truth is that some parents will go as far as sabotaging their own lives including tanking their own credit.

I think you need to actually go to the child support office in person. If you don't, you're pretty much a number.

I will say though, that they're far more likely to listen of you "gently" remind them of their duty, versus shutting up forever.
