This is a good system. We have it here in MT too. The problem with it is they only have to make one payment every three to six months to show they are making an effort to pay and that keeps the suspension from happening. I see why they have it that way but I also think they could maybe tighten up the slack a bit and get better results. I have gone through some really bad financial times since my divorce seven years ago but I have never missed a child support payment, if I can do it after what I went through I am sure most people can make their support payments.
