Docket Fee

Docket fees partially reimburse the county for processing child support payments and are paid by the person responsible for paying the child support. State law (IC 33-37-5-6) requires this fee to be paid on or before January 31 of each year. If it is necessary to file contempt or collection proceedings, court costs and filing fees will also be assessed against the person required to pay support.

Docket fees may be paid in cash, money order or personal check either in person or by mail. If mailing payment, please indicate "docket fee" on the payment and mail to:

INSCCU
PO Box 6271
Indianapolis, IN 46207
