In accordance with Sections 62A-1-117 and 78A-6-1106, child support is assigned to the state when a child is placed in the care/custody of the state or with an individual other than the parent for at least 30 days. The juvenile court shall also order the parents or any other obligated person to pay child support to the Office of Recovery Services (ORS) while the child is in a placement. If parental rights are terminated, and if any child support payable to the state has accrued prior to the termination of parental rights, the parent shall be responsible for paying this amount to the state in accordance with Section 78A-6-513. ORS will attempt to collect all past due support that accrued prior to the termination of parental rights for children who were in the care or custody of the state. |
