The Office of Child Support Services (OCSS) puts children first by helping both parents provide for the economic and social well-being, health, and stability of their children. OCSS serves parents and guardians, regardless of income and immigration status. The program helps tens of thousands of children every year by bringing more income into the home. OCSS collects more than $700 million a year on their behalf. Services include assistance with locating noncustodial parents, establishing parentage, establishing child support and medical support orders, collecting and distributing child support payments, and modifying and enforcing child support orders. Employment services and debt reduction programs are also available to noncustodial parents with a child support order. Custodial parents receiving Cash Assistance are required to comply with OCSS pursuant to federal and New York State statutes. All other custodial parents may apply for OCSS services on a voluntary basis. 

The OCSS Queens Borough Office services residents of the Borough of Queens. This office serves approximately 3,500 cash assistance applications/recipients monthly who are required to comply with child support.
