DCS uses an informal proceeding called a conference board to resolve customer complaints or grievances.
- If you feel aggrieved by a DCS action or dissatisfied with an employee, first contact your support enforcement officer (SEO).
- If you can't resolve the issue, you can request a conference board.
For more information, see the rules governing conference boards in WAC 388-14A-6400. In addition, DCS has a brochure entitled Child Support Conference Boards. If you have trouble downloading or printing the brochure, you may obtain one from your local DCS office.
If you still have questions, contact your support enforcement officer at the phone number listed on the last page of the notice you received. If you are not sure which office handles your case, call the KIDS line at 1-800-442-KIDS (5437).
