The order is in effect the day the judge signs it. Once Support Enforcement receives a signed copy of the order, it only takes a week or two. Just stay on your case worker to make sure they make it happen. * It depends upon what sort of case load the judge might have to deal with. Unless the order was rescinded or addressed during the change of custody hearing then it will not necessarily be granted automatically. Child enforcement and family service divisions are badly overloaded and understaffed in every state. It is the responsibility of the petitioner or the person's counsel to make certain all changes of support and other issues are correctly adjudicated.

If you have primary physical custody you are entitled to support.

Depending on the state, if the child stays with the other parent over a certain set amount of time, then that parent is responsible to pay less child support. Most states are trying to push joint physical custody where the child spends 1/2 to 2/3 of the time with the primary caretaker and the rest with the other parent.
