There are several benefits to receiving child support by court order.
The money will be garnished from the other parent’s paycheck and directly deposited into your account on the same dates each month.
Thus, you do not have to worry about when and how much money you will receive, and you can plan your monthly budget accordingly.
A support order will also determine each parent’s financial obligation for paying the child’s extra-curricular activity and unreimbursed medical expenses.
