Request to Send Withholding Order – Hunt County, TX

The Request to Send Withholding Order is a Hunt County District Clerk form on which a party in a child support case asks the clerk to send a withholding order to the payor's employer, giving the cause number, court, parties and employer details.

The form is headed with the Hunt County District Clerk's office, P.O. Box 1437, Greenville, Texas 75403-1437, and the clerk's phone number, (903) 408-4172. At the top you enter the cause number and the Judicial District Court, and mark whether the order is Temporary, Final or Modification.

Two blocks then identify the people in the case: the Payee (the person receiving child support) and the Payor (the person paying child support). Each block asks for name, address, city, state, ZIP code, full Social Security number, date of birth, gender, and home and work phone. Below them you give the employer's name and address, and the name and telephone number of the party making the request.

A section titled Fees and Information explains that the employer's order is sent by certified mail for a fee, and that if you do not give the clerk a copy of your order, the clerk will certify a copy of the withholding order on file for a per-page fee. The form does not print the amounts in a way this page repeats; ask the District Clerk for current charges.

This is not a property tax document and is not used for any other Hunt County matter.

The form is completed by the person asking the Hunt County District Clerk to send a withholding order in a child support case. It identifies the party making the request, the payee (the person receiving child support), the payor (the person paying child support) and the payor's employer, so you need all of those details at hand.

The form is tied to a case number in a Judicial District Court and covers a temporary order, a final order or a modification, as shown by the three boxes at the top. It does not state who qualifies to make the request or who may sign or submit it for someone else. For those questions, contact the District Clerk's office at (903) 408-4172 or [email protected].

It is not a property tax form and is not meant for matters outside a child support withholding order.

The form prints no due date. You submit it when you want the District Clerk to send a withholding order to the payor's employer in your case, once you have the cause number, the court, the order type and the employer's name and address. If you do not give the clerk a copy of your order with the request, the form says the clerk will certify a copy of the withholding order on file for a per-page fee, so having your copy ready avoids that charge. A fee also applies when the employer's order is sent by certified mail. The form gives no processing time; the clerk's office can answer timing questions at (903) 408-4172.

You can send the request to the Hunt County District Clerk by e-filing or by mail.

Fees are stated on the form. The employer's order is sent by certified mail for a fee. If you do not provide a copy of your order, the clerk certifies the withholding order on file at a per-page fee. The form does not say how those fees are paid and the amounts are not repeated here, so ask the clerk's office before you send the request.
