Answer 4

it really depends on where you live and the status of your case. In our state it goes by amount owed and length of payments. What i have learned from experience though is that if they havent taken your license yet- then you should be in the clear, as they usually do all blocks around the same time. such as license suspension, loss of passport, recapture of tax returns etc....

i would say that you should contact your child support office that you have the case through adn find out if they have placed a hold on your tax returns.
