We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What is the difference between past due and arrears?

The word arrears is used to mean past due when describing the past, omitted dividends on cumulative preferred stock. If a corporation fails to declare the preferred dividend, those dividends are said to be in arrears. The dividends in arrears must be disclosed in the notes (footnotes) to the financial statements.

How long do you have to pay arrears?

In California, there is no statute of limitations for arrears. Unpaid amounts remain collectible indefinitely. Legal action to collect these debts can be initiated at any time, regardless of how long the balance has accrued.

What does amount of arrears mean?

An amount can be in arrears, meaning its late or overdue, or paid in arrears, meaning it was promptly paid after a service was provided. Within payroll processing, being paid in current is the opposite of being paid in arrears because it allows employees access to wages before or at the end of the current pay period.

How many months of missed child support payments before jail?

If, under the same circumstances, the child support payment is overdue for longer than 2 years, or the amount exceeds $10,000, the violation is a criminal felony, and convicted offenders face fines and up to 2 years in prison (See 18 U.S.C. 228(a)(3)).

What does it mean when child support is in arrears?

Again, arrears means unpaid or past-due child support, and they can add up quickly.
