$8.8B disbursed since December 2001; nearly $989K daily 

LINCOLN, Neb. – Nebraska State Treasurer Joey Spellerberg is celebrating the performance of the Nebraska Child Support Payment Center (NCSPC) as it begins its 25th year of operation.

Nebraska is the only state in which the State Treasurer’s Office oversees the receipt and distribution of child support payments. 

Key performance highlights include: 

  • Since December 2001, the NCSPC has processed approximately$8.8 billion in child support payments. 
  • Year-to-date, the center has disbursed $262.2 million through 1,160,555 payments.
  • An average of $988,943 in child support payments is processed daily.
  • In 2024, the NCSPC disbursed $274.2 million in child support payments, compared to $227.5million in 2002, the first full year of operation.
  • The NCSPC’s Customer Service Call Center handles an average of 3,300 calls a month.
  • Twenty-four years ago, the NCSPC mailed more than 76,000 billing statements a month. Today, fewer than 2,000 statements are sent per month due to technological innovation, resulting in an annual cost savings of more than $45,000. 
  • Of the roughly 100,000 payments remitted monthly by employers, nearly 90% are sent electronically. 
  • In 2001, the NCSPC had a staff of more than 60 employees. Today, it has 11 employees due to the implementation of new technology. 

As a division of the Treasurer’s Office, the NCSPC acts as the clearinghouse for all child support payments in the state, based on an interagency agreement between the State Treasurer’s Office and the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), and as authorized by state statute.  

Enforcement of child support orders is managed by DHHS.
