A woman was owed thousands of dollars in support payments by a former spouse who was living in British Columbia.
A woman was owed thousands of dollars in support payments by a former spouse who was living in British Columbia. She told us she was concerned that the Interjurisdictional Support Orders Unit of the Family Responsibility Office (FRO), which handles interprovincial cases, was not enforcing a court order against the man. In response to our inquiries, the FRO issued an order suspending the man’s driver’s licence for lack of payment. The woman soon received more than $5,700 in lump sum payments, and the support payor agreed to make weekly payments of $500 thereafter to make up the money he owed.
