Filing the required form with the Department of Health and Environmental Control complies with the requirements of this section. Editor's Note The Preamble of 1997 Act No. 71 provides as follows: "Whereas, it is the sense of Congress that all states shall have in effect certain laws relative to the enforcement of child support in order to remain eligible for federal funding under Title IV-D of the Social Security Act. Therefore, this act amends the Code of Laws of South Carolina, 1976, to, among other things, require the collection and use of social security numbers on certain state-issued documents and applications; to provide authority for the imposition of administrative liens in child support cases; to enhance the information requirements of the parties to a paternity or child support action; to enhance procedures establishing paternity; to conform the state's Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA) to changes made by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws; to enhance income withholding; to provide authority for the Department of Social Services to administratively change the payee in Title IV-D child support cases; to provide authority for the issuance and enforcement of administrative subpoenas; to enhance the ability to void conveyances fraudulently conducted for purposes of avoiding payment of a child support obligation; to eliminate the payment of a child support disregard check in accordance with the elimination of federal financial participation in the same; to require employers, state and local agencies, financial institutions, and utility companies to provide certain information necessary for the establishment or enforcement of child support obligations; to establish a mandatory new hire reporting program; and to establish a state registry of child support cases."
