Don't pay support without an order to do so, and don't pay support directly to the other parent - pay through the courts or your State's disbursement unit.

If you were collecting child support from your husband before you got married and now are separated but not legally will you get in trouble if the marriage was never reported to the courts?

If you didn't apply for a marriage license, you didn't get married in the eyes of the law. But that has nothing to do with child support. Child support is just that - support from the biological father for the child he helped to create. His responsibility to that child has nothing to do with marital status. If you did not go through the courts to get this support and you are worried that it won't continue, you need to take it to court and make his obligation to your child legally binding.
