Enforcing Custody & Support Orders in Ontario
Let’s dive into the mechanisms that ensure Custody & Support orders are followed.
Family Responsibility Office (FRO) - Enforcing Support Orders
Here’s how FRO do it
• Garnishing Wages: The FRO can direct employers to deduct support payments right from the paying parent’s wages.
• Intercepting Federal Payments: Overdue child support can be covered by intercepting tax refunds and other federal payments.
• Suspending Driver’s Licenses: If a parent fails to pay child support, the FRO can suspend their driver’s license.
• Reporting to Credit Bureaus: Non-payment can negatively impact a parent's credit rating, as it's reported to credit bureaus.
Enforcement of Custody Orders
For custody orders, the court has several tools to ensure compliance:
• Police Assistance: A police enforcement clause can be issued, authorizing police to help retrieve the child if necessary.
• Contempt of Court: Willful disobedience of a custody order can lead to a parent being found in contempt of court, which might result in fines or even imprisonment.
