Cities with the highest concentration include Fort Kent, Augusta, Paris, which serve as regional hubs for child support case processing and interstate enforcement coordination for cases involving parents in multiple states.
Non-custodial parents in Maine who are current on their support obligation and experiencing a significant change in income — such as job loss or medical disability — may be eligible to request a formal modification review through the state child support agency without having to hire an attorney.
Child Support Offices by Counties
Custodial parents in Maine who receive public assistance are automatically enrolled in child support services as a condition of TANF or Medicaid eligibility. Parents not receiving public assistance can still apply for child support services voluntarily and typically receive the same level of enforcement assistance at little or no cost.
