HOW TO MAKE CHILD SUPPORT PAYMENTS
In the Lycoming County Domestic Relations Office
1. In most cases child support payors are required by law to have their wages attached. The Lycoming County
DRS will send a court ordered income attachment to your employer who must deduct the support payment
from your paycheck and submit it to SCDU who then processes and distributes payments within 48 hours.
You are obligated to pay the support on your own until your wages have been attached.
2. CREDIT CARD payments for first payments and or court ordered purge payments or those individuals who do
not have an attachable income source can be made at www.lycomingcountydrs.com there is a 7% charge in
addition to any interest charges. 
3. Money Order payments (purge/initial payments) can be made in the Domestic Relations office. Checks will
only be accepted in an amount under $1000 and with valid ID of the person presenting the check. Cashier or
bank checks are preferred. All money orders or checks paid in the office must be made out to Lycoming
County DRO.

signed, dated, and endorsed.

If there is a problem with a payment you sent to SCDU (e.g. the coupon was not included with the

Such enforcement actions may include:
o Notifying the credit bureaus of your failure to pay child support;
