DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES
NOTICE OF ISSUANCE OF INCOME ASSIGNMENT DUE TO DELINQUENCY
You are hereby notified that due to a delinquency in your child support payments in the amount of $__________ as
of the _____ day of __________, ______, or due to your failure to pay your obligation on the date ordered, 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 income payable to you to satisfy your support obligation in the
amounts and for the purposes shown in the attached Order/Notice to Withhold Income for Child Support (Order
for Income Assignment).
Your total arrearage as of the ______ day of ___________, ______, is $ _________ plus twelve (12%) per annum
simple interest.
You may contest this Notice of 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 limited to a determination of the correct identity of the person(s)
or entity(ies) to whom or to which the administrative action is directed, to whether there is a mistake of fact
involving the action, and:
1.
A determination of the amount of arrearage;
2.
Whether the amount of payments on the arrearage, if the amount of payments were not
previously ordered by the court, is reasonable as to the amount to be paid and the time
over which the obligation is to be paid; and
3.
Whether the withholding of income was otherwise appropriate pursuant to the conditions
of T.C.A. §36-5-501.
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.
