Yes, as there are no grounds to challenge the move.
No, you can not collect child support if the absent parent collects ssi. No matter what state you are in, anywhere in the united states. It's against the law!
If you are an absent parent of the child, yes.
The terms of a custody agreement can vary. To determine if the absent parent is required to help pay for university, you must refer to your custody agreement.
No.
Only if the obligee parent is deceased and with the approval of the court.
If the child is severely disabled, perhaps.
If on SSI, no. If on SSD, there's a separate SSD Child Benefit check that's not deducted from the parent's child, but a modification needs to be requested to set the support to the amount of this check. This will not address any arrears. see links below
You, (the Absent Parent), and the Custodial Parent both go to your local Child Support Office and file a motion to be heard in front of a judge (in most cases, it's heard on a separate date from the date you file the motion) to cease child support. On the date of the court date, you both appear before a judge and he/she will ask the Custodial Parent if this is his/her wishes. The Custodial Parent will then answer according to how they see fit. The Custodial Parent can also at that time request that all monies owed to him/her from back support that the Absent Parent has not yet satisfied be forgotten. This will clear the slate for the Absent Parent as far as arrears is concerned. Note, this will not clear any monies owed to the State that the Custodial Parent may have received i.e. TANF. You, the Absent Parent, will still be held responsible for paying this back and your child support will continue-only for repayment of State funds received on behalf of the child-until paid in full.
Most single parents do not pay child support. The absent parent pays the child support.
A parent quits paying child support when the child reaches the age of 18
Legally, no - but keep in mind that, in general, children are better off when they have regular contact with both parents.
It is not uncommon for an absent parent to stop paying the child support that he or she has been ordered by the courts to pay. The reasons for non-payment vary, but the bottom line is that the parent is bound by law to continue paying the required amount each month.Your Legal RightsAs the custodial parent, you have the right to seek any child support payments that have not been paid on time. The custody payments are intended to make sure that the non-custodial parent contributes his or her fair share toward the child's welfare. It does not matter what the non-custodial parent's employment situation is or how difficult the payment may be for that parent, the law requires that the payments be made each month. If a parent stops paying child support on time, the custodial parent has the right to contact the authorities to enforce the payments.How a Lawyer Can HelpIt is easy to recommend that a custodial parent contact the authorities to begin the process of tracking down child support payments. Unfortunately, once the parent notifies the police, the legal issues can become complicated. Hiring a lawyer who has experience in child support situations will help you fight for your child support in an efficient manner that will lead to a faster renewal of support. Unless you are a legal expert, attempting to track down and force an absent parent to pay child support will take longer and be more difficult if you try to do it on your own.Consequences for the Non-Paying ParentAn attorney can help you understand the different avenues that you can pursue in order to receive child support. The absent parent could face fines, jail time, or probation if he or she does not begin making payments on time. In some cases, the state will garnish a parent's wages so that the child support payments are taken out of that person's paycheck directly. The funds could also be taken out of the non-paying parent's taxes or bank account. A non-paying parent could have his or her driver's license suspended or experience seizure of vehicles or homes that are not fully paid for. If necessary, the case can go to court.
