When is form FL-632 used?
Form FL-632 is used to tell the parents and the court when 
the local child support agency is or is not enforcing support 
orders in this case. It is also used to identify who is the 
payee in the case.
What is a payee?
The form tells the parents and the court if support must be 
paid to one of the parents or the local child support agency. 
Whomever support must be paid to is called the “payee.”
l Note: Sometimes a parent who formerly received public 
assistance closes their case with the local child support 
agency but back support (arrears) could still be owed to 
the county for the time when aid was active. In this 
situation, current support would be owed to the parent, 
while this back support would be owed to the county, 
meaning both the parent and the local child support 
agency would be considered payees. 
How does support get paid?
If the local child support agency is enforcing the support 
order, payments collected by Income Withholding Order 
must be made to the State Disbursement Unit at the 
following address: California State Disbursement Unit, 
P.O. Box 989067, West Sacramento, CA 95798-9067. 
 
If the local child support agency stops enforcing current 
support or back support (arrears) owed to the parent listed 
in item 1b on form FL-632, this does not affect or change 
the child support order and child support must still be paid.
l Support must be paid directly to the parent listed in item 
1b until a new Income Withholding Order for Support
(form ) is put in place. This will not happen
automatically and it is the responsibility of one of the 
parents to submit the new Income Withholding Order to 
the court for approval and then have it delivered to the 
employer of the parent listed in item 1a on form FL-632. 
l Each parent must also complete and deliver to the court
a Child Support Case Registry Form (form )
within 10 days of receiving a Notice Regarding
Payment of Support (form ) stating that the local
child support agency has stopped enforcing current 
support or back support (arrears) owed to the parent 
listed in item 1b.
How can parents change the order?
The current child support order will remain the same unless 
one of the parents (or the local child support agency if they 
are enforcing current support) requests that the support 
order can be changed. Parents can change the support order 
in two different ways: 
l If the parents agree to a new amount, they can complete, 
sign, and submit to the court a Stipulation to Establish
or Modify Child Support and Order (form ). 
l If the parents don’t have an agreement, one of the 
parents can request a court hearing by filing a Request
for Order (form ) and an Income and Expense
Declaration (form ) and then having the papers
served on the other parent. The judge will decide at the 
hearing how much support must be paid.
Note: If the local child support agency is involved in your 
case, it must be served with any request to change child 
support and approve any agreement.
Is the case assigned to a child support 
commissioner or a judge?
The following hearings will be in front of a child support 
commissioner, unless one is not available due to 
exceptional circumstances:
l A request to modify ongoing child support if the local 
child support agency is involved in your case and item 
3a(1) is checked on form FL-632.
l A request to determine back support (arrears) if the local 
child support agency is involved in your case and item 
3a(2) or 3a(3) is checked on form FL-632.
l A request regarding medical support if the local child 
support agency is involved in your case and item 3a(4) is 
checked on form FL-632.
A judge or other judicial officer will hear your case if the 
local child support agency is no longer providing any 
enforcement services in your case and item 3b is checked 
on form FL-632.

commissioner and the local child support agency, visit:
