Bill > HB2039

This bill modifies the effective date of a previous act related to child support pass through. Specifically, the bill changes the effective date from January 1, 2026, to July 1, 2029, which will delay the implementation of the original legislation by approximately three years. The bill appears to be a technical amendment that adjusts the timeline for when the child support pass through provisions will go into effect. Child support pass through typically refers to a policy where a portion of child support collected by the government is returned directly to the custodial parent, which can help support families receiving public assistance. The bill was passed by the Washington State House and Senate in April 2025 and approved by the Governor in May 2025, with the new effective date set for July 1, 2029.
