Information FOR Our Members

Employers have long been valued partners in the payment of child support. Employers are the essential link both in helping child support enforcement agencies locate parents who owe child support, and in withholding income from their paychecks to pay their support obligations.

Since October 1, 1998, state and federal law have required all employers to report each new and rehired employee within 20 days to the State Directory of New Hires per the Indiana State Statute IC22-4.1-4-2, and the Federal Personal Responsibility Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, 42 U.S.C. 653A.

All Indiana new hire reports must contain these six data elements:
  • Employer's Federal
  • Identification Number
  • Employer's Name
  • Employer's Address
  • Date of Hire (optional, but recommended)
  • Employee's SSN
  • Employee's Name
  • Employee's Address
  • Date of Birth (optional, but recommended)
For more information about reporting requirements and options, employers may call the Indiana New Hire Reporting Center at 317-612-3028 or toll free at 1-877-879-0198. Employers can also receive information, print an alternate W-4 form, or report on the Center's website at: www.IN.gov or go directly to www.in-newhire.com.

Many thanks to those employers who have complied with the new hire reporting law. Contact Kim A. Westerfall for more information at (317) 612-3028 ext. 111.
