About the Webinar

Australia's child support system was designed with the intention that child support matters be handled administratively, minimizing the need for court intervention. However, when child support matters do require court involvement, family law practitioners may find themselves revisiting key processes, legal frameworks, and strategies to effectively guide their clients. This session addresses the essential 'what, when, why, and how' of these matters, including:

  • When you can take a child support matter to court and the relevant provisions of the Child Support (Assessment) Act 1989 and Child Support (Registration and Collection) Act 1988 that apply
  • The circumstances in which the FCFCOA has jurisdiction to consider child support proceedings compared to the circumstances in which it will exercise its discretion to make an order
  • Th procedural requirements for running child support proceedings (i.e. what is required pursuant to the Family Law Regulations, the FCFCOA Rules 2021 and Central Practice Direction
  • The practicalities of running child support proceedings - what should you include in your application, advice and how to be strategic with your matter
