shall prepare and file the statement of registration. The statement
shall be verified and signed by the obligee showing the mailing

California in which, to the obligee's knowledge, the original order
of support and any modifications are registered.

Section 5601, the clerk of the court shall file them without payment
of a filing fee or other cost to the obligee. The filing constitutes
registration under this chapter.

by any form of mail requiring a return receipt from the addressee
only, to the obligor at the address given a notice of the
registration with a copy of the registered support order and the post
office address of the obligee. Proof shall be made to the
satisfaction of the court that the obligor personally received the
notice of registration by mail or other method of service. A return
receipt signed by the obligor shall be satisfactory evidence of
personal receipt.
