Debit Card or Direct Deposit of Funds?
Child support collections can be received using either the Nevada Debit Card or if you prefer to have the funds deposited into your bank account, follow the Direct Deposit steps below.
About the Nevada Debit Card
You will receive a Nevada Debit Card automatically when child support collections are received and disbursed.
The card will be a Visa® Debit card issued through Bank of America, N.A. The card is an electronic payment card; it is not a credit card. It is a prepaid debit card to which your child support payments received are directly deposited.
