A quick definition of office of child-support enforcement:

The Office of Child-Support Enforcement is a government agency that helps parents who take care of their children get the money they need to support them. This agency is part of the Department of Human Resources and is established under the Social Security Act. The agency helps parents find the other parent who is responsible for paying child support and makes sure they pay what they owe. The agency also has a service that helps locate parents who are hard to find.

A more thorough explanation:

The Office of Child-Support Enforcement is a government agency that helps custodial parents collect child support payments from non-custodial parents. This agency was established under Title IV(D) of the Social Security Act.

State and federal offices of child-support enforcement work together to ensure that children receive the financial support they need. The federal Office of Child Support Enforcement has established the Parent-Locator Service to help locate non-custodial parents who owe child support.

For example, if a custodial parent is not receiving child support payments from the non-custodial parent, they can contact the Office of Child-Support Enforcement for assistance. The agency will work to locate the non-custodial parent and enforce child support payments.

Another example is if a non-custodial parent is not paying child support, the Office of Child-Support Enforcement can take legal action to enforce payment. This may include wage garnishment, seizure of assets, or suspension of driver's licenses or passports.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
