Interjurisdictional cases of spousal and child support, 2010/2011 / by Chantal Steeves.: CS85-002/32-4E-PDF
"When the relationship between spouses or partners ends through divorce or separation, or even if no relationship between the parents of a child was ever established, many couples establish an arrangement for continued financial support. According to the 2006 General Social Survey, divorcing or separating couples are much more likely to have support arrangements in place when the couple has children relative to couples with no children. … This report draws upon results from the 2010/2011 Survey of Maintenance Enforcement Programs (SMEP). It includes data from nine reporting jurisdictions that collectively cover 21% of Canada’s population (Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and British Columbia are not included). The article begins with an overview of findings from the survey, including some key characteristics of the cases registered with a MEP. It then focuses on a particularly challenging aspect of maintenance enforcement, which is the enforcement of interjurisdictional support order (ISO) cases, where the recipient and payor live in a different province, territory or country"--Page 6.
