I just received a notice today from NCCSC dated Oct 1 stating that I owe over $1000 in non-tanf.
Currently, child support is under the jurisdiction of another state and is NOT in arrears.
The current child support amount is over $1400/month.
My ex makes over $100K/yr in salary and the child has NO special needs of any kind.
There are no other children associated with this case.
What is non-tanf and how is this legal to be billed for something that I have never heard of and when I have never been late on any child support payment?
Non-TANF means that you did not receive anything from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program.
You’ll need to check with the NC Child Support Enforcement agent assigned to your case. NC does not have jurisdiction to modify or enforce a child support order from another state without going through the process to have the other state’s order registered in NC. It could be that the information you received as to do with registering the other state’s order in NC.
