Child Support CaseRegistry

Posted on October 25, 2019March 27, 2020 by Editor

Child Support Case Registry

Child support case registry forms are used for a specific purpose.  California Rule 5.330 outlines the procedures for filing this form.


Purpose

This rule provides guidance to court clerks in processing the Child Support Case Registry Form (form FL-191).


Application

This rule applies to any action or proceeding in which there is an order for child support or family support except for cases in which the local child support agency provides support enforcement services under Family Code section 17400.  This rule does not apply to cases in which the local child support agency provides support enforcement services under Family Code section 17400.


Requirement that form be filed

The court must require that a Child Support Case Registry Form (form FL-191), completed by one of the parties, be filed each time an initial court order for child support or family support or a modification of a court order for child support or family support is filed with the court.  A party attempting to file an initial judgment or order for child support or family support or a modification of an order for child or family support without a completed Child Support Case Registry Form (form FL-191) must be given a blank form to complete.  The form must be accepted if legibly handwritten in ink or typed. No filing fees may be charged for filing the form.


Distribution of the form

Copies of the Child Support Case Registry Form (form FL-191) must be made available by the clerk’s office and the family law facilitator’s office to the parties without cost.  A blank copy of the Child Support Case Registry Form (form FL-191) must be sent with the notice of entry of judgment to the party who did not submit the judgment or order.


Items on form that must be completed

A form must be considered complete if items 1b, 1c, 2, 5, and 6 are completed.  Either item 3 or item 4 must also be completed as appropriate.  If the form is submitted with the judgment or order for court approval, the clerk must complete item 1a once the judgment or order has been signed by the judicial officer and filed.


Clerk handling of form

The completed Child Support Case Registry Form (form FL-191) must not be stored in the court’s file.  It should be date and time stamped when received and stored in an area to which the public does not have access.  At least once per month all forms received must be mailed to the California Department of Social Services.


Storage of confidential information

Provided that all information is kept confidential, the court may keep either a copy of the form or the information provided on the form in an electronic format.
