Note: "Families" includes all families with children aged 19 years and under enrolled in a Non-ISO or ISO-out case and living in the jurisdiction. Not all families have a regular payment due each month. Reasons for this include: the case is inactive (e.g., a new case going through the registration process or there's a stay of enforcement on the regular payment obligation), the payment obligations may have expired and the case remains open to collect on arrears, or they have a different payment schedule, such as quarterly. ISO = Interjurisdictional Support Orders. Source: Statistics Canada, Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics, Survey of Maintenance Enforcement Programs |
