OPINION OF THE COURT

Spatt, J.

In this appeal involving the Uniform Support of Dependents Law (hereinafter USDL; Domestic Relations Law art 3-A), the only issue raised, one of first impression in the appellate courts of this State, concerns the determination of the effec*101tive date of a USDL support order. We hold that where New York is the responding State, such support orders are effective upon the date of the filing of the petition in the initiating State court. We therefore modify that portion of the Family Court order concerning support to make it retroactive to May 24, 1984.
