Form Dhs 1201 PDF Details

In an effort to streamline the process for applying for child support services, the Michigan Department of Human Services (DHS) – Office of Child Support (OCS) utilizes a form known as the DHS 1201, titled "IV-D Child Support Services Application/Referral." This comprehensive form serves as a critical starting point for custodial parents, non-custodial parents or alleged fathers, and other caretakers seeking to establish, modify, or enforce child support orders. By offering a detailed format for applicants to provide personal, financial, and familial information, the form ensures that the child support enforcement process is initiated with a thorough understanding of each case's unique circumstances. Requirements include detailed sections about the custodial parent or caretaker, the non-custodial parent or alleged parent, marital status information, details about the child or children involved including health care coverage, and an acknowledgment section for applicants to confirm their understanding and agreement with the processes involved. Significantly, the DHS 1201 form acknowledges the sensitive nature of disclosing personal information, catering to safety concerns and the need for confidentiality in child support cases. Furthermore, it constitutes an agreement by the applicant to cooperate with the OCS in taking necessary support actions, underlining the mutual responsibility between the state and the applicant in ensuring the well-being of children through adequate support arrangements.

receipts and distributes payments by direct deposit to a bank account, to a debit card, or by paper check.

 

If I am sent money in error or overpaid, the MiSDU will take all the necessary steps to correct errors in the processing of my child support payments. By checking the “yes” box below, I give OCS permission to

withhold an incremental amount specified below from future child support payments owed to me. To revoke my consent, I must notify the Friend of the Court office. Failure to check “yes” has no effect on my

eligibility for IV-D Child Support services through OCS.
