A bill for an act relating to orders for child support including requests for information regarding digital financial accounts, and providing penalties.
This bill allows Iowa child support agencies to request records from digital financial accounts (like online banking or payment apps) to enforce child support orders. It defines "digital financial account" as any online account storing, transferring, or receiving money digitally. Parents or putative fathers who refuse to provide these records without valid reason face a class D felony charge, punishable by up to five years in prison or fines up to $10,245. The law directly affects individuals legally responsible for child support payments.
