Many parents in Texas are expressing frustration over delayed child support payments due to a recent system upgrade at the Attorney General's Office. Have you been impacted?
www.click2houston.comI don’t have live access to the latest news databases from here, but I can share what’s been reported recently about the Texas Attorney General’s Child Support Division and point you to where you can verify the newest updates.
Key recent developments (as reported):
- Texas OAG launched a modernized child support enforcement system called ChAMP (Children Are My Priority) to replace the old mainframe. The system reportedly processed millions of payments since going live in mid-2024, and the office touted improved access through new self-service portals. These updates were described as a major modernization effort with the aim of speeding payments and improving customer service.

- The division continues to emphasize its role as the official child support enforcement agency in Texas, focusing on locating absent parents, establishing paternity, enforcing orders, and distributing payments, with ongoing coordination with state agencies and community partners.
