English term or phrase:
Nonassistance Support Enforcement Services
English answer:
Support Enforcement Services for people who are not receiving public assistance for their children
English term
Nonassistance Support Enforcement Services
- Is this an enforcement service to make the other noncustodial parent pay child support (e.g., if they fail to pay it)? Or is it, rather, a service that actually pays child support to the custodial parent (e.g. from state funds)?
- What exactly would "nonassistance support" mean? Does it mean "support that is not social assistance"?
Any explanation on how this works would be helpful.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
Responses
Support Enforcement Services for people who are not receiving public assistance for their children
If you look at the first page of the above document, you will see in the "Declaration" section, the applicant has to declare in item 5 that "I am not receiving public assistance funds for the children."
Also,
The CSE program has different rules for assistance families (e.g., those receiving
cash benefits under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program; TANF) and non-assistance families.

"Support Enforcement" is an action to find the noncustodial parent and make him/her pay child support that the court has ordered.
alternative maintenance and support measures
"Non-assistance support enforcement information: The two partners to your support order are the noncustodial parent and the custodial parent or physical custodian. The non-custodian parent is the person who must pay support. The custodial parent or the physical custodian is the person with whom the children live. Both the custodial and non-custodial parents may be required to provide health insurance coverage or medical support for children."

Since the question posed is of 'non-assistance support enforcement services' I suggested 'alternative support' which is without assistance.
There is a child maintenance service within the government department alongside the department of work and pensions. I saw this to be relevant to the question about non-assistance support for children, contrary to what 'AllegroTrans' has to say in its usual repeated criticisms and continuous negativity. Take note of the web link:

I apologize if my answer is inappropriate.

The enforcement is in connection with the non-custodial (absent) parent who must pay financial support or a maintenance allowance. This can be a problem connected with children whose parents are divorced.
(An alternative is one or another of possible choices or courses of action.
An alternative is a situation which presents a choice between two mutually exclusive possibilities.)
Other information explains a system which includes agencies who work with objectives to provide help. "Child support agencies help children get the financial support they need by localizing absent parents and establishing paternity."
"They offer child support orders and enforce support payments. Without assistance from agencies, many single parent homes would not receive the child support payments required for basic necessities."

: "alternative" doesn't provide any explanation; try looking at Kiet's answer and references and consider posting an "agree"

: at least as explanatory as other answer which isn't very clear but no one should have to read a load of other stuff to get to the answer. Explain "enforcement" and "support services" and IN WA
