With a name, date of birth and Social Security number, we can make use of local, state and federal resources to locate the parent. You may find this information on old pay stubs, credit forms, tax returns, or school documents. The action our office takes depends a great deal upon the facts you have provided. If we have enough information, we may be able to begin work on the case without further contacts with you. You may be contacted if more information is needed.
Some cases take longer than others before positive results are realized.
Poor or insufficient information will cause delays, adding to the usual delays in the judicial system. Understand that your case is receiving attention even though you may not have heard from the office. Payments made by non custodial parents in cases handled by the District Attorney's Child Support Division must be made through our office. They must be made payable to the Ventura County District Attorney by money order, cashier's check, personal check, employer's wage withholdings or military allotment. The payments must be identified by name and District Attorney case number.
