Child Support Pass-Through
Provision by which at least $50 from a child support payment collected on behalf of a public assistance recipient is disbursed directly to the non-custodial parent. The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) of 1996 eliminated the pass-through effective October 1, 1996. A few States have elected to retain the pass-through, paying it out of State, rather than Federal, money. Also known as Child Support “Disregard.”
