Summary of
Support Order
What is the Summary of Support Order
(SOSO)?
It is a form that summarizes a child support
order. It is completed and presented to the
judge by the attorney or non-represented party
in the child support court action.
Why does a SOSO have to be completed?
State law requires that a SOSO be submitted to
the judge with all court orders which establish
paternity or establish, modify or enforce a child
support obligation when services are not being
provided by Oklahoma Child Support Services.
[43 O.S. §120] These are referred to as “Non
IV-D” child support accounts.
Is the SOSO form filed with the court?
No. The form is mailed or faxed to the OCSS
Central Case Registry at P.O. Box 248843,
Oklahoma City, OK
73124-8843, fax (405) 522-8901.

Can a paternity or child support order be
signed by a judge without a SOSO?
No. A SOSO must accompany each paternity
or child support order when services are not
provided by OCSS.
[43 O.S. § 118 D (I)]
Where can I find a current version of the
SOSO?
A copy of the SOSO is available on the
website at:
www.okdhs.org/library/forms/OCSS/
A paper copy can be obtained by calling the
CARE Customer Call Center (see back page).
Why does the form ask for Social Security
numbers?
Social Security numbers must be provided in
order for child support payments to be
identified with the correct case. [42 U.S.C. §
666(a) (13)] The SOSO is not filed in the
court file.

What information is required on the
SOSO?
• County of the child support order
• Plaintiff and Defendant’s name
• Case number
• Type of order (temporary or final)

protective order

What happens to the SOSO after it is
prepared?
Mail or fax the SOSO to the Central Case
Registry, P.O. Box 248843, Oklahoma City,
OK 73124-8843,

If the SOSO is not completed thoroughly,

contact the preparer before a child support
payment can be processed.
The CCR will create a Non IV-D pass
through child support account.
The CCR is responsible for maintaining
addresses of record for noncustodial parents
and custodial persons. The address is used
for mailing out child support payments.

payments from OCSS?
