CSSD Debuts Virtual Interviews for Parents and Caregivers
The Los Angeles County Child Support Services Department (CSSD) is excited to announce the arrival of one-on-one virtual interviews with Child Support Specialists. Now, parents and caregivers can meet with CSSD personnel online and receive efficient assistance from the comfort of their home or their current setting.
The application of virtual interviews is being made to better assist customers and remove the barriers of distance, travel expense or work schedules that may limit their ability to attend in-person interviews and receive the help they need.
Scheduling a virtual interview is simple and easy. Customers can find their local Child Support Services Division Office, choose the “virtual interview” option and select a date and time for the meeting. After the meeting is scheduled, a meeting link is emailed to the customer.
CSSD suggests virtual interview participants to arrive at the meeting five minutes before the scheduled interview time. If the participant is unavailable or fails to appear on screen, an attempt by the Child Support Specialist will be made to reach out by email and/or telephone number.

We are responsible for establishing and enforcing support orders when a child receives public assistance or when a parent or legal caretaker requests our services. We act in the “public interest” and do not represent any individual. Our services include: opening a case; finding parents; establishing a legal parent-child relationship; establishing child and medical support orders; and enforcing support orders. We provide these services at no or little cost to you.
All issues regarding a child support case can often be resolved without you having to go to court. This is one reason it is important that you stay in contact with our office once a case has been opened.
Our mission is to enrich our community by providing child support services in an efficient, effective and professional manner, one family at a time.
