Child support payments

Payment options
When a case is registered for collection with CSA, your payment period is usually monthly and the paying parent is then required to make direct payments to CSA by the seventh day of each month.

Change payments
You may be able to change your payments to better suit your situation.

Overdue payments
What is CSA's overdue payments policy?

Defence personnel serving in war-like operations
If you are a member of the Australian Defence Forces and you serve in warlike operations, you receive a tax-free salary as well as additional allowances paid as compensation for serving in a war-like zone. As a result your taxable income will decrease and your net income will increase. These changes may affect your child support liability.
