Child Support
The Tribe's 477 Tribal Child Support Unit (TCSU) strives to ensure that all eligible tribal children receive the financial and emotional support they deserve from both parents.
TCSU is a federally funded and approved Tribal IV-D child support program. The following child support services are provided for parents or third-party custodians:
- Paternity establishment;
- Establishment of child support orders;
- Modification and enforcement of support orders;
- Location of non-custodial parents;
- Collection and distribution of child support; and
- Direct deposits.
Tlingit & Haida uses its tribal judicial process and regulations to establish child support obligations. There is no fee for these services, with the exception of costs related to determining paternity. TCSU cannot monitor or modify visitation or custody orders.
Please review the Child Support section under Family Services in Tlingit & Haida's Program Profiles booklet for eligibility requirements. The booklet may be accessed by clicking here.
