Chippewa Cree Tribe Child Support Program

Child Support Services

 

Paternity Establishment

We can assist in establishing paternity through voluntary acknowledgment of paternity, notarized genetic testing requests, and court-ordered genetic testing.

 

Child Support Order Establishment

New orders for child support can be established for families where one or both parents are absent from the home due to separation, divorce, or substitute care placement of the child.

 

Child Support Order Modification

Existing child support orders can be modified (changed) if there has been a substantial change in circumstances such as a change in income or a change in the children's custody. If you are requesting a modification please complete the modification request form.

​

Monitoring and Enforcement

Our professional staff monitor all child support cases on a regular basis to make sure the non-custodial parent is compliant with the order.  Orders are enforced to ensure that support is provided for the child.  Enforcement may include income withholding, tax offset, and suspension of professional licenses.

​

Eligibility Notice: Please be aware that although the custodial parent does not need to reside in the Chippewa Cree Tribe's Child Support Program's jurisdiction to be eligible for child support services, the non-custodial parent does need to reside in within the Tribe's Jurisdiction to further your case.  If the non-custodial parent resides outside of the Tribe's jurisdiction the custodial parent should contact the nearest State/Tribal Child Support Agency where the non-custodial parent resides.
