MAILING DATE OF NOTICE: ___________________________________
Pursuant to a court order, statutory requirements directing payment by Order/Notice to Withhold Income for Child
Support (Order for Income Assignment), or administrative actions by the Department of Human Services, you have
been ordered to pay your child support obligation by means of an income assignment. This is to notify you that the
original Order/Notice to Withhold Income for Child Support (Order for Income Assignment) has been modified and
that your employer, or other person, corporation, or institution which is a payer of income has been directed,
pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated, §36-5-501, to withhold a greater or lesser amount of income payable to you
to satisfy your support obligation.
Your income assignment has been modified in the following manner:
_____________________________________________________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________________________________
You may contest this Notice of Modification Income Assignment by filing a written request for an administrative
hearing with the Local Child Support Office at the address above within fifteen (15) days of the mailing of this
notice as noted above. The grounds for contesting the Notice are that the income withholding is improper due to a
mistake of fact, or the amount withheld is improper due to a mistake of fact.
If you contest this Notice of Income Assignment within the above time limit, a hearing will be promptly set. Your
employer will continue to withhold income unless a decision favorable to you is rendered. You and your employer
will be notified of the decision within forty-five (45) days of the date the Order/Notice to Withhold Income for
Child Support (also called an Order for Income Assignment or Income Assignment) was issued. If an unfavorable
decision is rendered, you have a right to further appeal the decision as described in the Department’s hearing order
following the decision.
It is your responsibility to keep the Court Clerk and the Local Child Support Office informed of the name and
address of your current employer, whether you have access to health insurance coverage, and if so, the health
insurance policy information. You must also immediately notify the Court Clerk and the Local Child Support Office
of any changes in, or any additional employment, including the name and address of the new employer. Your new
employer will be notified of the Order for Income Assignment.
An Order for Income Assignment shall be mandatory as long as current support or arrearages are still owed.
Clerks of court are authorized to issue an Order for Income Assignment to the employer or payer of income of the
obligor and to institute the process to assign income when the obligor fails to pay court costs, but shall not have
priority over the Order for Income Assignment for child or spousal support.
