Direct Deposit

Direct Deposit is also known as Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). Your support will be deposited directly into your account.

When your child support payment is deposited directly into your account:

• You get your money faster because mailing time is eliminated.
• You do not need to make extra trips back and forth to the bank or wait in lines.
• Your check cannot be lost or stolen.
• The court requires it.

When a payment is posted to your child support case, Friend of the Court electronically tells your bank to credit your account. The funds are available to you the following business day.

You may call a special toll free line designated for participants to find out the date of the last child support payment. The funds will be available the following business day.

Payment information is available by calling 248-858-1565 or 1-800-357-4507, you must enter your social security number and your IVR-PIN to obtain information. If you would like to change or get a new PIN, you must complete the required IVR PIN Change form.

To ensure children receive their support in the fastest, most economical manner.
