Wisconsin Shares Handbook
A parent whose good cause claim was denied or who disputes a decision by the local agency may petition the local agency for a Fair Hearing. If the good cause determination was made by the W-2 agency, the parent may request a W-2 Fact Finding.
The Child Support Agency (CSA) must be given reasonable notice and may participate in any Fair Hearing or W-2 Fact Finding resulting from a good cause dispute.
If the parent requests a Fair Hearing:
Wisconsin Shares eligibility must remain open during the Fair Hearing process; and
The local agency must instruct the CSA to suspend child support services during the Fair Hearing process.
