AN ACT relative to overpayments of child support.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
274:1 New Paragraph; Child Support Guidelines; Overpayment. Amend RSA 458-C:7 by inserting after paragraph II the following new paragraph:
III. Whenever the court, pursuant to this chapter, modifies a support order which results in an overpayment of support, the court shall order, absent a showing of undue hardship, the obligee to directly reimburse the obligor for such overpayment of support or order an adjustment to the modified support order until reimbursement of the overpayment has been satisfied. Any reimbursement ordered shall be only for an overpayment that occurs after the date that notice of the petition for modification of support order was given to the respondent. The court shall enter an order for reimbursement as a provision of the modified order, which order for reimbursement shall take effect 30 days after issuance, unless either the obligor or obligee requests, within such 30-day period, a separate hearing to determine the amount and frequency of reimbursement.
274:2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect January 1, 2008.
Approved: July 3, 2007
