Michigan Waiver and Direct Pay of Support Payments is a program established by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MD HHS). It provides a way for families who receive child support payments from the State of Michigan to receive their payments directly from their employer or other mayor. This program offers a way to avoid the hassle of waiting for a check or money order in the mail and also eliminates the need to track down a payment if it is not received on time. The program is offered to families receiving child support payments from the State of Michigan as part of a court order, or through Michigan's Friend of the Court office. Michigan Waiver and Direct Pay of Support Payments offers two types of payment options: 1. Waiver of Payment: With this option, the mayor of the child support payments (usually the employer) will send the payment directly to the MD HHS, who will then forward it to the family. The family will not receive the payment directly, but it will still be tracked and accounted for. 2. Direct Payment of Support: This option allows the employer to send the payment directly to the family, eliminating the need for the MD HHS to act as a middleman. This direct payment option also eliminates the need to track down a payment if it is not received on time. The Michigan Waiver and Direct Pay of Support Payments program is designed to make the process of receiving child support payments easier and more efficient for families in the State of Michigan.
