When you separate, your child support and Working for Families entitlements and obligations can change.
Child support
Child support is money paid by parents who do not live with their children, or who share care with someone else. If you have children with the partner you’re separating from, you can apply for child support through us or make your own arrangements. If you already pay or receive child support, you may need to update your details.
