Ways to pay
Payments coupons
Please include a payment coupon along with when mailing in a support payment. This ensures that your payment is made to your account.
You can use one of these Payment Coupons:
- a coupon that comes with your Monthly Statement of Account (see sample coupon)
- a coupon you downloaded from the Child Support Online Services (registration required).
- a Quick Print payment coupon you can download with registering. However, these quick print coupons do not contain your personal information like your coupons on the Child Support Online Services site.
When mailing coupons:
- Write your KIDS PIN on check or money order - payable to the Wisconsin Support Collections Trust Fund or "WI SCTF"
- Send your payment and coupon to the Trust Fund at:
PO Box 74200
Milwaukee, WI 53274-0200
Important points:
- Do not give your coupons to your employer. Employers receive special forms for withholding support and R&D fees.
- Use the correct coupon for your payment. The different coupons instruct
the Trust Fund to apply your payment to support or to R&D fees. If you use
the incorrect coupon, your payment will be applied to the wrong balance.
- Use the Payment Coupon for paying support, past-due support, and interest.
- Use the R&D Fee Coupon to only pay your R&D fee.
- Do not use these coupons to make payment as part of an agreement with your child support agency to avoid an enforcement action connected with the Lien Docket. For these types of payments, contact your local child support agency for a special form.
- To make a payment on the debt that led to a lien, but not to make payment as part of an agreement with your child support agency, you may use your Payment Coupon. To apply the payment to the court case with a lien, you must “designate” the payment to that specific court case. Write the court case number on the “Designated Court Case?” line, and check the box to the right of that line. See a sample payment coupon. If you owe current support for the court case you selected, the payment will first pay the current support due for the selected case.
If you have a question about your coupons, please call the KIDS Information Line, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. (Central Time).
