NOTICE OF DELINQUENCY
1. NOTICE TO PERSON ORDERED TO PAY CHILD SUPPORT (OBLIGOR)
Obligor’s name:
The child support payments listed on this form are more than 30 days in arrears on the date of filing this notice. If they are
not paid within 30 days of the date of service of this notice on you, a penalty of 6% per month may be charged on the
unpaid balance. The penalty may accumulate to a maximum of 72% of the original amount of the unpaid support.
California law provides: “Within a timely fashion after service of the Notice of Delinquency the
[obligor may file] and
serve a motion to determine arrearages” and show the court why the 6% penalty should not be imposed. Forms (FL-490
and FL-300) for filing the motion (also known as a "request for order") for a court hearing to establish your possible
exemption were served on you with this Notice of Delinquency. You should file the Request for Order (form FL-300) as
soon as possible, before the person to whom child support is paid (support obligee) obtains a court order or writ of
execution.
