Other Employer and Payroll Responsibilities

Termination Notification

You must notify the agency designated to receive support payments within ten (10) days after an employee terminates employment. The employer must provide the agency with the employee's last known home address and the name and address of the new employer, if known.

Providing Employee Information

When trying to locate child support payers, child support agencies may contact employers and request information about their employees. Information typically requested includes employment dates, wages, home and work addresses, and health insurance coverage. You are required to provide all information requested by child support staff from Wisconsin within seven (7) days of the request.

You may ask that requests for information be made by letter. If you have concerns about the information being requested, contact the child support agency or the state Bureau of Child Support.
