False reporting by child-support agencies
I had an experience that I believe is more widespread than I
originally thought it was: For several years in a row, San Mateo County Child Support Services' accounting department decided that I was late in paying child support, despite the fact that the payments were paid directly from my paycheck every two weeks. Because of the accounting error (which had something to do with when the payments were posted, and nothing to do with whether they were made on time), my credit rating plummeted and every year thousands of dollars would be taken from my tax returns. Every year I would have to go through the same process to get the tax refund sent back to me from Child Support Services, which took the position that I had nothing to complain about because I received the money anyway -- even if it was a few weeks late. The credit-reporting problem was equally bad, if not worse: No matter how many times I explained what happened, the credit-reporting agencies would not remove the negative remarks from my record. According to Child Support Services, I was "late" for months and months on end -- despite the fact that each and every payment was not only paid on time, but early! I was told by the person in charge of the San Mateo Child Support Services that the problem is widespread, and that it's even worse in larger counties, such as Los Angeles. If anyone has had a similar problem with California child-support collecting agencies, please let me know. I'm a lawyer and I think I have a way of doing something about it. Thanks. |
