If you are living in Australia
The effectiveness of systems for administering child support varies between countries. Where payments
can be established, there can sometimes be lengthy delays before Australian-based parents receive their
first child support payment from a parent in another country.
There can be delays between when a payment is made by a parent overseas and that payment being available
to the receiving parent in Australia.
Payments can be received through a bank transfer, if you have an existing Australian bank account
or via cheque.
