I\ot_()n Public Assistance Permanent Child Support Available For Parents The Department of Health and Human Ser vices Monday issued a pro posed regulation that would provide 75 percent federal funding to support state child support enforce ment services for indivi duals who do not receive public assistance. The regulation was an nounced by Secretary Pa tricia Roberts Harris. She also announced proposed regulations to allow state child support agencies to use the Internal Revenue Service to collect child sup port payments for that group. Secretary Harris said these actions would help ensure that parents who are not receiving child sup port, most of them women, would have access to the services of state, local and federal child support en forcement programs. For families who receive assistance from the Aid to Families with Dependent Children program, states are required by the Social Security Act to locate pa rents who have deserted their children, establish pa ternity of children when necessary and collect child support from absent pa rents. States must provide these services at little or no charge to families who do not receive public assist ance Congress recently en acted Public Law 96-272 which provides 75 percent federal funding on a per manent basis. The new regulation im plements this law. The re gulation is retroactive to Oct. 1, 1978. In fiscal 1979, states col lected $736 million for fami lies not receiving public assistance. These collect ions helped many families maintain their financial in dependence and avoided costs that might otherwise have been expended in ad ditional public assistance payments. Families who need as sistance in obtaining child support from an absent parent can be referred to the appropriate child sup port agency by their local social services depart ment. The #secretary’s an nouncement of proposed regulations to extend In ternal Revenue Service child support collection services to families that do not receive public assist ace appeared today in the Federal Register. They im plement Section 402 of Public Law 96-265. In addition, they clarify and modify existing regula tions to streamline the IRS collection process. The minimum debt col lectible by the IRS would be raised from $75 to $2,000. Eighty-seven percent of child support collections now being handled by the IRS are for debts of more than $2,000.
