Request to end or adjust child support payments

DHS-681 Request to Discharge State-owed Debt
Our members have very low incomes! This form could assist seniors who are paying child support payments because their now adult children were the recipients of public assistance and the State is recouping their funds. Their children do not receive the money that the State has FOC deduct from the Social Security payments. The Social Security Administration (SSA) just follows the court orders. Once completed, the member submits the form to the Friend of the Court office where their court order is located…in one case, a member had 2 court orders, each in a different county. Both FOC’s needed to receive a form. So I made a couple copies of the completed form, and had him sign each one. He took them from there. Maybe he will not have half of his Social Security payments deducted, now!

Social Security Representative Payment Program
Social Security’s Representative Payment Program provides financial management for the Social Security and SSI payments of our beneficiaries who are incapable of managing their Social Security or SSI payments. If you are concerned that someone you know becomes incapable of managing or directing the management of his or her benefits, please call us at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) to request an appointment to discuss your concerns.
Generally, we look for family or friends to serve as representative payees.
When friends or family are not able to serve as payees, Social Security looks for qualified organizations to be representative payees.
