New Hampshire Child Support Office

BCSS is New Hampshire's IV-D agency, run statewide from a central office in Concord rather than by county. It locates noncustodial parents, establishes paternity, sets support orders, and collects and enforces payments once a case is active.

Case management is available through the NH e-ChildSupport customer portal, and mailed payments go to a separate regional processing center from the main administrative office.

A parent or caretaker of a child can apply for New Hampshire child support services through the e-ChildSupport customer portal. Families already receiving FANF (New Hampshire's TANF program) or Medicaid are typically referred for services automatically.

The application requires identifying information for both parents and the child, along with any existing custody or support paperwork. BCSS then works to establish paternity if needed and get a support order in place.

New Hampshire collects most support through income withholding once an order is active, disbursed to the receiving parent by direct deposit or debit card.

Payments can be made online through ExpertPay, in cash through MoneyGram, or by mail to the Child Support Regional Processing Center — a separate lockbox address from BCSS's main office.

New Hampshire's enforcement page lists tools including tax refund interception, license suspension, and credit bureau reporting for parents who fall behind on payments.

As in every state, federal law allows a passport to be denied or revoked once past-due support exceeds $2,500.
