US Revokes Passports for Unpaid Child Support

Published 3 weeks ago
Description

The U.S. State Department is intensifying efforts to collect unpaid child support by revoking passports of parents owing over $2,500, a move that could affect thousands. This action, based on a 1996 law, has led to a significant increase in back payments, with over $156 million collected in the last five years. The new rules allow the Health and Human Services Department to flag large arrears, resulting in passport revocations. Parents must clear their debts to regain passport privileges.
