New York Income Withholding For Support (Spousal Only) is a method used by the New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance to collect spousal support payments from a spouse's earned income. This process involves the withholding of income from the paying spouse's wages to ensure that spousal support payments are made. There are two types of New York Income Withholding For Support (Spousal Only): an Immediate Income Withholding Order and an Income Deduction Order. An Immediate Income Withholding Order requires the paying spouse's employer to immediately begin withholding spousal support payments from the paying spouse's wages. An Income Deduction Order requires the paying spouse's employer to deduct spousal support payments from the paying spouse's disposable income. Both orders require the paying spouse's employer to send the withheld funds to the New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance.
