Product updates

Companies can now update company legal name, legal address, and phone number in Company Onboard, and administrators can update the company phone number in Console. Legal name and legal address can only be updated before company review is initiated. As always, ensure your system stays in sync with these updates by listening to company update webhooks.

You can now configure any child support garnishment to have payments remitted by Check, regardless of the garnishment’s state agency. This week we’ve added support for Alaska, DC, Hawaii, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, New Jersey, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, and Wyoming. To enable remittance by Check via the API include `managed = true` when creating or updating thepost-tax deduction object. To enable it via Console, check the “Managed (Payment Remitted by Check)" box on the Child Support object. Learn more about Child Support Garnishment Remittance here.

You can now create a company object in Check without any of the fields that were previously required (legal name, phone number, address). This update offers more flexibility for custom onboarding flows, making it simpler to create companies and any associated entities with fewer required fields. When a legal name is not provided at creation time, it must subsequently be updated via API using the company ID. Please note that in order for a company to be visible in Console, or to generate links for onboarding, a company legal name and address are required. Learn more about the company object here.

You can now create a company with the company object using only the legal name. This improvement allows you to create company objects earlier and adds flexibility to when you collect address and phone number data in your onboarding flow. While no longer required at company object creation, company address and phone number are still required to initiate enrollment with Check. Learn more about the company object here.
