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 parent or non-custodial parent. If you disagree with the child support decision of CSSD, it is your responsibility to advocate your position to the judge.
