If the father of the children is not trying to support his children then 'Child Welfare' (which becomes a legal matter) can come into the picture and actually garnish your wages. They phone your employer and the payroll person will take a percentage off your pay check before you even get it. It would be to your best interest to contact the mother of your children and come to some decent agreement and start paying that child support! A true man would care enough about his children to do so. If you have reason to believe your ex girlfriend or ex wife would spend the money on herself rather than the children then you can request receipts as to what monies are spent on the children. You have no excuses!
Actually, the receiving parent of the child support is not legally required to provide any receipts to prove how the child support money was spent. It is at the total discretion of the parent what the money is spent on.
The courts can do this, as well as the State child support agency.
The IRS does not garnish these payments (except from their employees). The IRS will, at the State's request, intercept tax refunds to collect unpaid child support.

Yes... No matter where you move to, Child Support will find you!!!
Collection bureaus can obtain court orders to garnish wages for debts unrelated to child support, even if those wages are also being garnished for child support.
The State's Attorney/District Attorney or your State's child support agency can do this.
