Finding a missing parent and a parent's income

Child support has many tools to help find missing parents and to identify their income. For example:

  • KIDS, the statewide child support computer system, automatically checks other Wisconsin computer systems (such as the Wisconsin's Department of Transportation and Department of Natural Resources).
  • Child support has access to lists of workers that have recently been hired by employers across the country through the New Hire reporting program.
  • Child support can ask other states to find a missing parent if he or she has moved to another state.
