make the custodial parent pay, pay it themselves or make the non-custodial parent pay.

Florida (who would have thought we'd do something right) and W. Virginia have opted to pay the fee themselves (basically, just pay 17.33 to the federal government)

Virgina, who has decided to make the custodial parent pay, said that they couldn't make the non-custodial parent pay because they wouldn't be able to get them to pay that on top of the $6,000 that the average deadbeat parent already owes.

What a crazy law!!! Another example of the poor and working class paying for the perks of the goddamned rich. Keep the capital gains tax cuts, but then force single working parents to pay for the deficit that results.

What the fuck every happened to no taxation without representation???
