In your country, does the government deduct child support directly from your salary, or is it something that needs to be handled outside of work?

I don't understand what you mean, why should the government deduct child support directly. So if your salary is $10k minus child support, say $1k then you're only receiving $9k net. Is this what you mean by direct deducting from child support?

Child support payments are usually deducted from an obligor's (the person paying child support) income and paid directly to the recipient. The amount of the deduction and the process for making the deductions vary by jurisdiction. In some countries, the deductions are made by an employer and sent directly to the government, while in others, the obligor is responsible for making the payments directly to the recipient.

In most countries, child support deductions are considered a legal obligation and are enforceable by law. Failure to make child support payments can result in wage garnishment, seizure of bank accounts, and even imprisonment in some cases.

It is important to note that child support laws and the process for making deductions can vary greatly between countries and even within regions of a country, so it's always best to consult with a legal expert or government agency for specific information.

Thanks for your explanation, because in my country there is no child support that must be paid by employees by cutting their salaries, even in my country if an employee has children they will get wife and child benefits which will be added to the employee's basic salary.

I think it is something that needs to be handled because some people are making little money and it will not be nice to remove some taxes from them again

I think it should be given to the mother directly of a child. If they are separated, they can do this. I am not sure if this child support is like the government is giving as a grant for parents who cannot support their child or children.

What if a person has a child with a lady that he is not married to? Doesn't he need to pay money monthly that would be used by the woman to take care of the child?

No, we don't have this requirement in Hong Kong. You may actually claim for child allowance when filing your tax return if you maintain an unmarried child who is under 18 years old or under 25 years old receiving full time education in an educational institution; or your child is unable to work due to disability.

In some countries, after the amount to be paid as child support has been decided I. Court, an order is given to your bank to make that deduction automatically when your salary comes in. That's because most men won't voluntarily love to pay child support to their ex lovers.

Child supper here is managed by the government agency the department of social services. It's by cities and regions. Those street kids are also brought to this services.

I have not heard about this before and this is the first time I'll be hearing about child support deduction from salaries.
This is mostly common in so many Western countries. I think the money is actually used in order to take care of the child. If you have a child and you are not married to your partner you need to pay child support.

That's the child support we are talking about. This is what the court institute as a lot of men would not want to do it unless forced
