Payment Description
EFT/ EDI
 
EFT/ EDI is the process of sending child support payments electronically through the ACH (Automated Clearing House) network. At this web site you can:
 
1. Verify your employees’ identifying information prior to having another entity (e.g., payroll company, IT department) create and transmit an EFT/ EDI file to your bank.
OR
2. Verify your employees’ identifying information and create an EFT/ EDI file to transmit to your bank.
Simply follow these steps:
1. Register an account at this web site if you are a new user or log in with your user ID and password.
2. Download and complete the Employer Reconciliation Sheet
3. Upload the completed sheet so the information can be verified.
4. If you choose to have your EFT/ EDI file created by another entity: Provide the State’s bank account information to that entity.
OR
  If you choose to have your EFT/EDI file created by this web site: Provide your payment information and create an EFT/ EDI file on this web site to securely transmit to your bank. Please contact your bank to determine their process for secure transmission of EFT/ EDI files.

Note: Your EFT/EDI file can be created in one of two ACH formats: CCD+ or CTX. Depending on how your bank processes EFT/EDI payments, submitting the file in the CTX format could result in a lower cost to you. You will need to discuss with your bank whether they accept the CTX format and how it may impact your cost.
 
  The amount you authorize will be deducted from your bank account and the payment information will be sent to the Maryland State Disbursement Unit.
