  Section  1.  Paragraph  (a)  of  subsection  3 of section 111-g of the

  (a)  A person who is receiving child support services pursuant to this
section who has never received assistance pursuant to title IV-A of  the
federal social security act shall be subject to an annual service fee of
twenty-five dollars for each child support case if at least five hundred
dollars  of support has been collected in the federal fiscal year. Where
a custodial parent has children with different noncustodial parents, the
order payable by each noncustodial parent  shall  be  a  separate  child
support  case for the purpose of imposing an annual service fee. The fee
shall be [deducted from] PAID BY THE NONCUSTODIAL PARENT, IN ADDITION TO
child support payments received on behalf of  the  individual  receiving
services.
  S  2.  This act shall take effect April 1, 2009; provided, however, if
this act shall become a law after such date it shall take  effect  imme-
diately and shall be deemed to have been in full force and effect on and
after  April  1,  2009;  provided,  further, however, that the office of
temporary and disability assistance is immediately authorized to promul-
gate any and all rules and regulations,  and  take  any  other  measures
necessary for the timely implementation of the provisions of this act on
its  effective  date, and is specifically authorized to promulgate emer-
gency regulations to implement the collection of the annual service  fee
from  noncustodial parents pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 111-g of
the social services law, as amended by section one of this act.
