Abstract: State child support agencies must enter into agreements with financial institutions doing business in the state for the purpose of securing information that may result in collecting past-due child support. To assist states and financial institutions, OCSE developed and implemented the Multistate Financial Institution Data Match (MSFIDM) which is an automated, centralized, and secure information exchange program. Outcomes of the MSFIDM match result in thousands of lien/levy notices. OCSE developed the Federally Assisted State Transmitted Levy (FAST Levy) application for state child support agencies and multistate financial institutions to exchange lien/levy information securely and efficiently. The FAST Levy application significantly reduces delays in executing a levy notice, thereby diminishing opportunity for an obligor who owes past-due support payments to state child support agencies and families to liquidate assets; cutting state child support agencies’ and multistate financial institutions administrative and implementation costs that are incurred by manually executing lien/levy notices; and, strengthening security by automating the lien/levy process.
