The South Carolina Affidavit and Order for Activation of Support is a legal document used to activate a child support order. This document is commonly used in the state of South Carolina when a parent needs to begin receiving child support payments from the other parent. It allows the court to establish an order for the payment of child support and then activate the order so that payments can begin. There are two types of South Carolina Affidavit and Order for Activation of Support: the First Affidavit and Order for Activation of Support and the Second Affidavit and Order for Activation of Support. The First Affidavit and Order for Activation of Support is used when the parent who is seeking child support has not yet received a court order for child support from the other parent. The Second Affidavit and Order for Activation of Support is used when the receiving parent has already been awarded a court order for child support, but the other parent has not yet begun making payments. Both documents must be signed and notarized by the receiving parent and approved by the court before the child support order can become active.
