Información sobre deudas alimentarias y agencias de informes

Explicación Simple

Si alguien no paga la manutención, se le puede informar a las agencias que dan crédito. Antes de eso, esa persona debe ser avisada y puede decir si la información es correcta.

Es como si un profesor le dijera a un estudiante que tiene una falta y le diera tiempo para explicarse antes de ponerlo en un informe de comportamiento.

Ejemplo Práctico

Juan no ha pagado la manutención de su hijo y tiene una deuda. La corte le envía un aviso de que su información se compartirá con una agencia de informes de crédito. Juan tiene 20 días para decir si está de acuerdo con la cantidad que debe antes de que se envíe la información.
