It gets worse. California gives the child support agencies full access to driver's license records. The people doing the investigations aren't the sharpest tools in the shed. I received a child support certified letter in 2002. The LA child support "staff" had used the driver's license records to compose a fictitious "person" with my name and driver's license number, residence records from some other person and heaven knows what else. They called the HR department at my employer to try to get their hands on my income. It took weeks of phone calls and faxes to prove I wasn't the "daddy". It helped that the "daddy" was black and I'm white. My "ace in the hole" was having had cancer in 1985, I was incapable of being the "bio dad" to either of the "offspring". I had never been in the city where the "offspring" live either. What an expensive and annoying mess. It didn't help that I had just received a layoff notice the very same day. When it rains, it pours.

Thanks for sharing your experience, which appears fairly common in the Peoples Republic of California. I hope you are in good health and employed.
