HR Fast Facts: What Is a Case Identifier for Child Support Garnishments?

The case identifier, or CSE Case Number, is a unique number on every court-ordered garnishment. This is often printed on the very first page of the order.

Please note: Entering an incorrect case number may result in payments being applied incorrectly by the state. If you have entered an incorrect case number, you should consider contacting the state immediately to ensure any previous payments have not been incorrectly applied, and correct the information with your payroll provider.
