Sometimes employers are required to deduct money from employees’ pay under the Child Support Scheme.

You do not need to do anything unless you are asked to by the Child Support Agency. If this happens, you will receive an employer package about what to do.

Child Support deductions

Child support deductions are not taxation amounts, so they should not be shown on payment summaries.

It is illegal to discriminate against any employee or potential employee because of their child support or maintenance obligations.
