Section 388-14A-2080. Once DCS opens a support enforcement case, under what circumstances can it be closed?

(1) The circumstances under which the division of child support (DCS) may close a case depend on whether the application for services was made directly to DCS or to another governmental entity.

(2) WAC 388-14A-2081 discusses closure of a case when one of the parties submitted an application for support enforcement services directly to DCS, which includes when DCS opened the case as the result of an application for public assistance in the state of Washington.

(3) WAC 388-14A-2083 discusses closure of an intergovernmental case, which is what we call a case where the application for services was made to the child support enforcement agency of another state, tribe, territory, country or political subdivision thereof, which then requested support enforcement services from DCS.
