Assistance in Obtaining Child Support
The man who got you pregnant must help support your child if you decide to stay pregnant and keep the baby. The law says he must help even if he offered to pay for an abortion. The Texas Office of the Attorney General can assist you in getting child support for your baby. The Child Support Office can help locate a non-custodial parent, determine the father of the child (paternity), establish and enforce child support orders, review and adjust child support payments, and collect child-support payments. If you need services, call 1 (800) 252-8014.
Neither federal nor state data can predict the statistical likelihood of collecting child support. In fact, a significant number of parents provide child support for their children outside the Attorney General’s child support program. However, for those parents who do not support their children despite court orders for child support, the Office of the Attorney General provides enforcement services. For these enforcement cases, on average, the program has collected about 62 percent of the amount of current support due each month.
Nationwide, child support programs collect about 57 percent of the current support due each month.
Medicaid
The Center is dedicated to assisting clients in receiving help from other agencies. One service we provide is instructions and forms for is Medicaid. Clients are advised to fill in all information and collect support documentation prior to visiting their local agency. This eliminates the need for multiple visits and assists them to quicken the process. Therefore, one is given to any woman who is pregnant and in need of assistance for prenatal care, delivery, and neonatal services.
