INSTRUCTIONS: ARKANSAS ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW REQUEST
Arkansas parties in child support cases who feel that the offices of the Arkansas Office of Child Support Enforcement have been unprofessional, discourteous or otherwise inadequate in handling their case should first speak with their caseworker. If this fails to yield results, the parent should then contact a supervisor at the office in question. If this fails to produce results, you may speak directly with the office manager. If you still are not satisfied with the handling of your case, you may call the Office of Child Support Enforcement's customer service division to file a complaint. Alternately, you may complete the Administrative Review Request discussed in this article. This document can be obtained from the website maintained by the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration.
