§ 443. Order of support by parent. If the court finds after a hearing
that a parent is chargeable under section four hundred thirteen of this
act with the support of his or her child and is possessed of sufficient
means or able to earn such means, the court shall make an order
requiring the parent to pay weekly or at other fixed periods a fair and
reasonable sum for or towards the support of such child. Where permitted
under federal law and where the record of the proceedings contains such
information, the court shall also require the social security number of
such parent to be affixed to such order; provided, however, that no such
order shall be invalid because of the omission of such number. Where the
record of the proceedings contains such information, such order shall
also include on its face the name and address of the employer, if any,
of the person chargeable with support provided, however, that failure to
comply with this requirement shall not invalidate such order. Where the
order of child support or combined child and spouse support is made on
behalf of persons in receipt of public assistance or in receipt of
services pursuant to section one hundred eleven-g of the social services
law, the court shall require each party to provide, and update upon any
change, the following information to the court by reporting such change
to the support collection unit designated by the appropriate social
services district: social security number, residential and mailing
addresses, telephone number, driver's license number; and name, address
and telephone number of the parties' employers. Due process
requirements for notice and service of process for subsequent hearings
are met, with respect to such party, upon sending written notice by
first class mail to the most recent residential address on record with
the support collection unit; or by sending by first class mail written
notice to the most recent employer address on record with the support
collection unit, if a true copy thereof also is sent by first class mail
to the most recent residential address on record with the support
collection unit. Any such order issued on or after the first day of
October, nineteen hundred ninety-nine shall also include, where
available, the social security number of each child on whose behalf
support has been ordered. Failure to report such changes shall subject
the parent to the provisions of section four hundred fifty-four of this
act.
