This Act improved upon URESA by allowing claimants to take support orders that were issued in one state and register them in other states so that if a husband or father fled to another jurisdiction, the order was still enforceable. In addition, the claimant had the opportunity to present her case to the responding court so that the court had both sides of the story before issuing a ruling.
In 1958, the Commission amended URESA and the Act became the Revised Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of Support Act (RURESA).
No. An order of support may only be filed and issued in the jurisdiction where the child legally resides. If support is awarded, your state's department of child support enforcement will be responsible for collection of support even if the father resides in another state. All states have reciprocal agreements for enforcement though, so this is usually no more of an issue than collecting support if both parents live in the same state.
In 1992 the Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of Support Act (URESA) was replaced by the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA).
You always file for child support in the jurisdiction where the child legally resides. The child support enforcement agency will take it from there.

No, before a suit for arrearages can be filed there must be a valid support order in place. The custodial parent can file for support according to the laws of the state in which he or she resides. If the order is granted the court will determine at that time whether or not any arrearages are applicable.
Yes they may unless the child is receiving some sort of welfare (federal and/or state aid). Normally, this is done by filing the appropriate paperwork with the agency in charge of child support enforcement in their jurisdiction, or filing a motion pertaining to the same in the court of jurisdiction.
The Texas Rangers are a division of the Texas Department of Public Safety and have statewide jurisdiction. They primarily investigate major crimes, including homicides, public corruption, and organized crime, often assisting local law enforcement agencies.

Some countries have reciprocal agreements with the US for child support. I suggest that you contact your State's child support agency. When you get an interview with them, bring all the papers relating to your child support: birth certificates, acknowledgments of paternity, court orders, payment records, etc. Be polite but persistent. Good luck!
