Section 388-14A-4610. How does a noncustodial parent avoid being posted on the DCS most wanted internet site?  


Latest version.
  • (1) DCS mails a letter to the noncustodial parent's last known mailing address by first class mail before posting a noncustodial parent (NCP) on the site. The letter advises the NCP:
    (a) Who cannot be located, to provide DCS with a current address and employer information.
    (b) Who owes back support, to:
    (i) Pay the back support debt in full; or
    (ii) Sign a repayment agreement with DCS and make the first payment under that agreement.
    (2) If the NCP does not comply within twenty days of the date on the letter, DCS may post the NCP to the site.
    (3) If the NCP wishes to dispute the amount of the support debt, the NCP may request a conference board review under WAC 388-14A-6400. Such a request does not stay (stop) DCS from posting the NCP to the site.
    (4) If the NCP files a court or administrative action to vacate or modify the support obligation, DCS stays the posting of the NCP to the site for up to six months. If DCS finds good cause, DCS may extend the stay.
    (5) If the NCP enters into a repayment agreement, but then misses a payment under the agreement, DCS may post the NCP to the site without further notice to the NCP.
