The state Title IV-D agency must have and use procedures under which:

A. liens arise by operation of law against real and personal property for amounts of overdue support owed by a noncustodial parent who resides or owns property in the state; and

B. the state courts and tribunals accord full faith and credit to liens arising in another state, when the state Title IV-D agency, party, or other entity seeking to enforce such a lien complies with the procedural rules relating to recording or serving liens that arise within the state, except that such rules may not require judicial notice or hearing prior to the enforcement of such a lien.
