Frequently Asked Questions

The staff of the Child Support/Alimony Office (Central Depository) of the Clerk's Office is committed to providing the public with quality service. Its primary goal is to ensure that child support and alimony payments are processed daily and in a timely manner.

The Child Support/Alimony Office (Central Depository) processes approximately 40,000 court-ordered child support and alimony cases annually. The result of which is an annual disbursement of approximately $52 million to legal custodians of children. During 1995, this office implemented an automated tracking system which eliminated the use of manual logs and introduced an enhanced mailing system. The mailing system not only resulted in a reduction of postal costs, but also expedited the disbursement of support payments. In addition, a plan was developed with local businesses to ensure compliance with the Florida State Statutes governing alimony and child support procedures.
