Payment Description

ACH Debit

ACH Debit is a method of electronically remitting child support payments and offers an alternative to preparing checks and remittance documents. To set up ACH Debit, please follow these steps:

Provide withholding information using one of the following methods:

a.	Download and complete the Employer Reconciliation Sheet, or provide us with a Microsoft® Excel file that contains each employee’s last name, social security number, case ID, and withholding amount. Upload the completed sheet so the information can be validated.
b.	Manually input each employee's information. Enter each employee’s last name, social security number, case ID, and withholding amount.

Provide your bank account information, payment amount, payment frequency, and payment date.

The amount you authorize will be deducted from your bank account and the payment information will be sent to the Rhode Island Payment Service Unit.
