Maine DHHS Steals Child Support Payments
The Child Support Enforcement arm of the Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is by far one of the best examples of how Maine Government has failed. Ever wonder where all those child support payments they collect are going?

I've dealt with the Caribou child support DHHS people and I think they are the worst in the state! While I'm sure they deal with a lot of dead-beat parents they have no interest in helping the good ones. I tried for two weeks to get a simple answer out of them and was led in circles, lied to, etc. Our tax dollars hard at work!
I spent most of the last 20 years dealing with DHHS trying to get answers such as "How much money is owed to me" "How much money is being paid in for my minor children" and What is the total of bills paid on my kids behalf. None of these questions were ever answered. The one way I did get some answers was to go into their office every week and sit there until someone came out to talk with me. Sooner or later they sick of seeing you and then they will do something but I never got any answers. I do get child support but don't know how long it will be coming in and how much is owed. I KNOW THE FATHER HAS PAID SO WHAT'S THE ANSWER? wHERE IS MY MONTHLY STATEMENT? EVERY OTHER BILL I HAVE SENDS ME A STATEMENT.
In 1996 I was named as father to a child I did not even know I had. She was five and for the next two years CSE would take 100% of my paycheck towards a $20,000.00 back child support debt while I faught through the courts to even see my daughter. When my daughter turned 7 years old I saw her for the first time. CSE treated me like a dead beat and had no intentions of helping me...They stole from me not only my money but my repsect, self worth and my reputation... GOD knows everything.
My sister was the victim in this case, this worker was stealing her child support and there was many stories this worker gave her when the money just vanished into thin air.... I myself feel that I am being robbed of my child support as well. The father of my girls sends alot of money in a month, but yet the state manages to keep more than half, and claim that they are owed this in back tanf....when I ask since I was only on it for a few months, and they have been more than compensated since they also have kept more than half of his income tax for three years...why don't they answer us????
