B. The income withholding shall occur without the need for any amendment to the support order involved or any other action by the court or ONCSS other than that required or permitted under the Osage Nation Child Support Code.

F. If there is no contest to the initiated income withholding, ONCSS shall serve a copy of the order upon the obligor.

G. The order shall be a final judgment for purposes of an appeal.
