Frequently asked questions concerning laws on late child support and child support arrearages collections, Shelly B. West, dallas attorney.

Child Support Arrearages Collections

Question:  How long can a child support arrearage be collected?

Answer:   Child support is considered a unique obligation and its collection may be commenced no later than the tenth anniversary of the child's graduation from high school. Then when a judgment for child support is obtained, it is subject to regular rules for the length of time for collections of debts. In addition, reporting a child support arrearage that is exists does not violate any Fair Debt Collection Act. Payment of arrearage may be negotiated.
