How do I report a child support payment in STP 2?
I currently have it set up as a Payroll Item 'deduction'. It shows up on the employee's payslip but does not transfer to STP.

Hi, do we know if/when Child Support Deductions will be supported as part of STP? Just had child support call me and they advised they will call me every month to confirm amounts unless I can report via STP ... This is going to be so painful having to deal with them every month :(

Child Support reporting is not yet compulsory under STP2. It's currently optional but you should be able to report it online ? There are multiple options depending on the type of letter you've received from Services Australia:
You can also pay via Credit/Debit Card, including over the phone 😊

When will Hosted be updated to tax track child support deductions under Deduction label D STP2 reporting?

@OnsiteTimber I don't believe there are any plans for it at this stage as it's not a mandatory component of STP Phase 2 reporting currently.
