Here’s the latest I can confirm based on recent reporting:
-
The Texas Office of the Attorney General (OAG) recently launched a modernized child support system called ChAMP (Children Are My Priority), which began live deployment in June 2024 and has processed millions of payments since then. This system replacement aimed to streamline case processing and payments, and the OAG has touted improvements in access via new self-service portals. This is tied to ongoing efforts to modernize Texas’ Child Support Division.[1]
-
In mid-2025, there were reports of delays in some payments tied to the transition and upgrades to the new system, prompting public concern from Texas parents. The OAG has stated that ChAMP is intended to improve efficiency and payment delivery, with claims of substantial payment throughput since launch. These articles indicate ongoing operational challenges during the rollout phase.[3]
-
Texas remains a large, nationally prominent child support program, with the OAG describing the modernization as a significant investment in families’ long-term success and emphasizing better tools for staff and more timely information for parents.[1]
If you’d like, I can drill down on:
- The current status of ChAMP as of the latest quarter and recent performance metrics (payments processed, total disbursed, average processing time).
- Any notable issues, outages, or user-reported problems and the OAG’s responses.
- How to access the new self-service portals and what features they offer (paternity establishment, payment tracking, etc.).
Would you like me to look for the very latest official updates or specific articles from a particular Texas city or publication?
