Payment patterns of child and spousal support / by Mary Bess Kelly. : CS85-002/33-3E-PDF

"This Juristat article uses information from the Survey of Maintenance Enforcement Programs (SMEP) to examine cases registered with a maintenance enforcement program (MEP) in nine reporting provinces and territories that collectively cover 21% of Canada’s population (Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and British Columbia are not included). The first section profiles MEP cases for 2011/2012 (the most recent information available). It examines the volume of cases enrolled, the demographic characteristics of program participants, support amounts due and received and the proportion of payments collected by MEPs. The second section examines changes in the payment patterns of child and spousal support over time by using SMEP longitudinal data available for reporting provinces and territories from 2005/2006 to 2011/2012. It focuses on payors with ongoing monthly support obligations in order to examine key issues such as changes in patterns of the proportion of payors making a monthly support payment during the first years of enrolment in a MEP, changes in enforcement activity, and changes in payors’ patterns of payment regularity over time"--Pages 4-5.
