LOOKING FOR ASSISTANCE

The Health Care Authority’s mission is: We ensure that New Mexicans attain their highest level of health by providing whole-person, cost-effective, accessible, and high-quality health care and safety-net services.

Preparing for Court

When you are preparing for a hearing, it is important to bring copies of important documentation with you, such as:

Proof of Custody (i.e. school records, court order, etc.)
Proof of Income
Child Care Receipts
Medical Expenses
Other Expenses Related to the Child (i.e. extracurricular activities, sports, etc.)

Please remember, CSSD cannot advocate on your behalf. CSSD does not represent the custodial party or non-custodial party. If you disagree with the child support decision of CSSD, it is your responsibility to advocate your position to the judge. If you disagree with any court filings resulting from a hearing, it is your responsibility to file with the court disputing the filings. CSSD will not dispute the results of a hearing for either party because we are a neutral entity.
