Do you have to pay child support if you are not married but live together?

Yes, you will have to file for a change in the order but you can get it end if your child gets married. If they are in college and get married, that eliminates your duties of paying child support in most states.


Child support for illegal children?

Child support for illegal children can be difficult. A court order is required to enforce child support payments, and this depends on the parent being a legal immigrant with a legal job to collect from. If a illegal child is born of a US citizen or naturalization, the child is no longer considered illegal.


Can a noncustodial parent refuse to give the custodial parent the child back to avoid paying 48 thousand dollars back child support and then try to file for support from custodial parent?

No, and no can he, so there must be a greater issue related here as to the safety of the children. As for being in arrears, in this economy that comes as no shock as men do not know there is free legal help to avoid or reduce arrears from the government. That is what I teach them.


Do you have to pay child support if you have ten children or more?

Yes, general guidelines for child support are no less than 40% of the noncustodial parent's income if there are 5 or more children. This percentage may differ depending upon the laws of the state where the child/children reside. The rules also differ if multiple children reside in different households and/or parents share equal physical custody. In some cases the amount of support can be based on earning potential rather than the actual present income.


Can your parents legally spend your child support money on themselves?

If a minor child is being abused or neglected, the obligated parent paying the child support can (and should) request an investigation by the state's department of child protective services. The court does not monitor the use of child support monies if the child has not been neglected, abused or is living in an environment which could be considered unsuitable. For example, if the minor child is not receiving necessities, food, clothing, medical care, education, and so forth; and it can be proven that the custodial parent used the support money for drugs, gambling, alcohol, etc. there could be grounds for prosecution of that individual and the minor would in all likelihood be made a "ward of the state".

How can I get help with my child's clothing from ex husband?

Clothing expenses should be paid from the child support. If you find there isn't enough being paid and your circumstances have changed (for example- older children cost more to raise) you have to go back to court and request that the child support order be increased. If he is not paying regularly pursuant to the court ordered child support, you can file a motion for contempt with the court. If necessary, they can arrange to take the money directly from his wages.


Should you be paying child support if the child is not in the home?

Of course. Child support is for the child, not the custodial parent and even if the child is not living in the home, expenses for that child continue and need to be met. If you feel the support you pay is being diverted for illegal purposes, you are free to petition the court for modification of the support order or request the child support be paid to the people where the child is living.


What if Im unmarried with children and splitting up in Florida?

You need to request the court make a support order, custody order and visitation order to avoid any problems over the children. The children should be made to suffer as little as possible and should have access to both parents.Added: Florida is one of the states that, by law, declares the "spouse" as the responsible parent for child support, REGARDLESS of who the actual biological father may be. However, being unmarried, you may have to request that the court order a DNA test of the alleged father in order to support your claim for child support against him.


If your husband is paying child support for his children but the kids are in fostercare and in the process of being adopted will he still have to pay child support after they get adopted?

Normally, after children are adopted out, a person no longer pays child support. Still, the court or law decides. This is read by 50 states and nearly 200 countries. In your situation, who knows? Why isn't he challenging for custody? see links below


Could your child support amount be increased if your ex wife is pregnant by her boyfriend and being placed on maternity leave?

No. The issue of the children's mother being on maternity leave has no bearing on child support obligations. The money is for the children's care not for the ex-spouse.


Do you have to have custody to file for child support?

Your question could be read in different ways. Child support is intended only for the support of children and their needs. If the children are in the custody of (living with and being supported by) someone who is not the parent on a regular basis, that person must petition the court to be appointed the legal guardian and then petition for a child support order against the parents. If you are the parent then you must have custody in order to get child support. If your children are in the custody of someone else, such as the example provided above, you cannot receive child support.
