Set Up ACH Child Support Payments

Employers may opt to make child support payments to the Oregon Child Support Program through bank-to-bank Automated Clearing House (ACH) transfer.

Contact your bank or payroll provider to determine if ACH transfer services are available. If so, complete and send a Request for Bank Information & Authorization (PDF) » to us at the address or fax number below.

To speed the process, we require a one-time reconciliation of employee (parent who pays support or “obligor”) case information. Please provide the following information to the Oregon Child Support Program by fax or mail:

• Employee name
• Employee Social Security number
• 15-digit Oregon child support case number

Upon receipt of the completed request, we will send a signed authorization document with the State of Oregon bank account information, which you will need to set up the ACH transfer.

We recommend a test file (pre-note) for zero dollars be sent before submitting your first payment.

The record layout is described in ACH Credit Record Layout.
