FAQ

An obligor can file an Agreed Motion to Terminate Withholding for Child Support with the district clerk to have a judge review the case and issue an order to terminate income withholding. To do this go to the "Texas Law Help" website, to download the Motion and Order forms.

Because child support is so important, the law sets a very high limit on the amount that can be withheld from your paycheck for this purpose. If you are not currently supporting another child or spouse who are not the subject of the order, up to 60% of your wages can be garnished.

Pressing Charges for Unpaid Child Support You or an attorney can contact your local prosecutor's or district attorney's office. They can file criminal “nonsupport” charges against the other parent, even if they live in another state.

The breakdowns are based on the following categories of gross weekly income: $0-100; $100-280; $281-750 and $751-max. At the maximum income, support is as follows based on 1, 2 or 3 children: $167+25%; $199+30% and $222+33%.

Limits on deductions from employees' paychecks You cannot deduct more than 60% of an employee's disposable earnings (50% if the employee is supporting a spouse or other children in the household). If an employee is 12 or more weeks behind in child support payments, the limits increase to 65% and 55% respectively.

In cases where income exceeds this limit, the Court should consider the award of support at the $400,000 level as the minimum presumptive order. The child support obligation for the portion of combined available income that exceeds $400,000 shall be at the discretion of the Court.

File a Complaint for Modification. In the Complaint for Modification, you ask the court to change the order so that it clearly says that the child support order has ended, or it says when the child support order should end. You will need to tell the court why the order should end.
