    Post Florida - Income Deduction Order

    I recently learned that the income deduction order that I originated and that was signed into law by the judge a few months back has NOT been entered into the state's CSC system. I do not believe it will be, unless I re-contact the Family Law division and specifically make this request.

    However, what if I no longer want to utilize the order? Am I required by law to serve this order on my ex's new employer if I do not want to? I do not want to create a possible damaging judgment or increase the ex's expenses by the state charging interest on overdue amounts and court costs for processing. I was not aware of this in the beginning. I was informed to get the order, so that the arrears could be properly tracked by the state.

    Thank you!

    No, you do not have to serve ex's employer. However, if the DOR CSE is involved, they will serve the IDO. The state system is back logged right now, but eventually they will serve it, espaecially if there are arrears owed.

    That already happened when you got the child support order. All an IDO is, is an order to the employer, instructing the employer to deduct the support from their paycheck, and send it to CSE. You are doing your ex a disservice, because the longer the employer is not paying, the greater the arrearage.

    Thank you. To be clear, my ex is unemployed, and no interest is accruing because while the order has been approved, it's not in the system, so no delinquency letter nor judgment has been created; only a recording of the order itself. And DOR is not involved because I have intentionally not engaged them.

    If I serve the order on his new employer when he gets hired, my concern is of course, this is when the order will be entered into the system and the extra charges will be added, and the judgment will be created due to my ex only having 15 days to catch up, and that will certainly not be a realistic possibility for him. Yet the order specifies what both of us are to do in regards to the order. So am I legally bound to serve the order or not?

    Thanks again!
