  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.
