About this Guide

This factsheet gives you the options for receiving child support payments when you stop receiving a sole parent benefit.

When to use this guide

If you’re receiving a sole parent benefit, your child support is paid to the government to help pay for your benefit.
If you stop receiving a sole parent benefit, you can choose to:

• make a private arrangement with the liable parent and tell us to stop collecting your child support
• make a child support voluntary agreement with the liable parent, which we’ll administer on your behalf
• continue receiving your current formula assessed child support entitlement from us direct
