Child Support: Open a CaseYes

Cases are opened three ways:

  • If the family is receiving CalWORKs or MediCal benefits, the social services department will refer the case to the child support agency for opening.
  • If no CalWORKs is being paid to the family, either parent may ask the child support agency to open a case.
  • If there is a family in another state that is seeking support from someone in Sacramento County, the other state will open a case with the child support agency.
