The Kansas Department for Children and Families is reporting delays in child support services because of the network security issue that is affecting the Kansas court system.
DCF works with the courts to process child support orders and payments, and with the system offline, there will be delays in returned filings, court hearings and orders being entered. Child support payments that are awaiting court orders or direction from DCF, court trustees and county clerks will be delayed. Any orders filed before October 9th should continue to process property. DCF will continue to provide services through paper and fax filings.
Anyone with cases in process should call the Child Support Services customer hotline at 1-888-757-2445 with questions or status information.
The Kansas Supreme Court has said that the court system will be using paper filings for at least the next couple of weeks because of the security issue.
