State Department to pull additional passports from parents who owe child support

The Trump administration is expanding efforts to revoke passports from parents who owe substantial child support arrears, particularly targeting those with debts exceeding $100,000.

The Trump administration has announced plans to enhance enforcement of a 30-year-old federal law that permits the revocation of U.S. passports for parents who owe significant child support. This change is targeted at individuals who have accumulated substantial arrears, thereby restricting their ability to travel internationally until the owed amounts are resolved. Although the exact number of affected individuals remains uncertain, estimates suggest that it could involve thousands of passport holders.
