TERMINATIONS
Terminations
When an employee with a child support obligation through a child support agency leaves your company, notify the agency as soon as possible following the termination date. A termination occurs if the employee quits, retires, is fired or laid off. Learn more Termination FAQs
There are two ways to notify your local child support agency of a termination.
- Complete the Termination of Benefits form, available only online, or

- Employee’s name
- Employee’s case number
- Employee’s last known home address
- New employer’s name and address (if known)
- Date of separation
