Understanding the benefits of opening a child support case

For many parents, the idea of opening a child support case can feel overwhelming and unfamiliar. Recognizing this, San Bernardino County Child Support Services (SBDCSS) is committed to making the process easier, more accessible and less stressful for families navigating this important step.

SBDCSS provides a range of supportive resources and trained representatives to guide parents through every stage of their child support journey. These professionals offer neutral assistance designed to ensure that both parties understand their rights and responsibilities throughout the process.

Opening a child support case brings several key benefits. Parents gain access to experienced child support professionals who can help establish, enforce and distribute payments. Additional services include assistance in securing employer-sponsored health insurance for eligible children, the potential to avoid court in certain situations, support with case modifications, and help for payers who may be facing financial challenges to prevent or resolve enforcement actions.

Another important benefit of opening a case is the establishment and maintenance of official payment records, which can be crucial for legal and personal documentation.

SBDCSS encourages parents to take the first step in accessing the support their children need and deserve.
