Any person who is financial dependent upon you qualifies as a dependent.
You have to file a consent order to terminate the income deduction order.
No tax credit and no tax deduction on your income tax return for child support payments.
Contact your State's child support agency. Be polite but persistent. Good luck!
Unless you are an SSI recipient, child support can take a percentage of your income.
You don't. Once the child is an adult, child support is moot and the ex is home free.
No, child support is not paid to the child but to the parent raising the child.
A free education. Child support from their parents. Adult supervision.
If your child is 18 years of age or older, and considered an adult, then no you do not have any basis with which to sue the father for child support. That child is considered an adult by legal standards and not a dependent. Only for full-time dependents do you have any grounds for child support.
Method of making payment makes no difference...check or deduction or whatever. It is not a deductible payment or deduction on return. Paying for your children is done with after tax $s, however, they may be a dependent and provide a deduction that way.
As soon as the court order is served to your employer.
Child support is not income to the recipient or a deduction for the payer. Spousal support, also called maintenance or alimony, is income to the recipient and deductible for the payer.
