Passport Denied For Non Child Support Payment

Home Tips > Tips By Category > Tips you can implement daily

Per US federal law, 22 CFR 52.70(a)(8), passports are denied and/or revoked for any individual who is more than $5000 in arrears in their child support obligation.

The non-custodial parent is notified in the IRS pre-offset notice that the Department of State (DOS) through the federal Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) will deny issuance or renewal of their passport when their child support debt reaches $5000.

Once the threshold of $5000 has been reached, the denial/revocation will remain in place until the debt is paid in full or is exempted by DCS.

The state agency will notify DOS through OCSE to release the passport if the non-custodial parent pays the debt in full, needs the passport for employment or deployment or has a family emergency.

Non-custodial parents requesting that their passports be released for employment or deployment must provide written verification from their employer (employment) or their commanding officer (deployment).

A family emergency is defined as a life or death situation involving an immediate family member.

The non-custodial parent must provide verification in the form of a letter from either a doctor or hospital (on letterhead) or the Red Cross.
