Information for Employers

The following services are available:

Role & Responsibilities of the Employer

Employers (of noncustodial parents who are expected to pay child support) are responsible for:

  • Providing information to verify the employment, wages, and other information about their employees, as requested.
  • Withholding child support payments from their employees' earnings and sending these payments to the NCCSCC.
  • Enrolling their employees' children in health insurance plans, when available, and deducting the premiums from their employees' earnings.
  • Attending court hearings, when necessary under certain circumstances.
  • Reporting the hiring of new employees, whether or not they pay child support, as required by North Carolina law. CSE uses this New Hire reporting data to locate parents in an effort to establish and collect child support, to detect and prevent erroneous benefit payments, and to prevent the erroneous receipt of public assistance payments.
  • Reporting terminated employees.
