I think if you can have the courts do a DNA test proving that he is not your son and she knew, you MIGHT be able to get the court to grant you some of that money back, assuming you didnt live as his father in the same home. Otherwise, the court will say you acted as the father and you are the only father "the child" knows as his father. The courts care how it will affect "the child", not the parents. Good Luck.
You certainly can, so long as there was an order for child support when you had the child. If arrears accumulated and the other parent now has the child, you are still entitled to the arrears. If there was not a preexisting order for support when you had the child, you might be able to receive retro support, though the laws vary from state to state.
In most states, the parent has until the child reaches the age of majority to file, but the child can file for one more years after. In a few states, the limit is 23 years of age. Some states do not allow for retroactive orders, while a few allows 18 years retroactive. The standard is five years.
As in a new claim? No, only the child can up until age 19.
It seems unlikely that a non-custodial relative would have "standing" to request a change in child support.
Yes, as an adult you can sue a noncustodial parent for back child support. However it is a different story if the noncustodial parent has never been ordered to pay child support. You can still sue them for a percentage of their assets. I am currently working on a case in which my client is sueing his father for 15 years of back child support. Any divorce lawyer can handle this case for you.
What does your court order say about moving out of state? Does the non-custodial parent take part in visitation with the child? How screwed up do you want the child support to become? The adult way to handle this is to have a conversation with the other parent and let them know your intentions, why you are moving and the impact this will have on visitation. If the other parent visits regularly the order will have to be rewritten (if the other parent wants it to be) to allow for travel, how is the child going to get back and forth, how much time will be spent with the other parent, etc.
Back support is owed the obligee parent, however any continuing support can go to the child.
the IRS MUST hold the money seized for a minimum of six months giving the other parent time to appeal the decision to seize the money for back support
The parent. It was the parent who incurred the expenses to support the child.
The parent.
Most states do not allow a child to collect back support as an adult. Although the right to child support belongs to the child, support is payable to the custodial parent to assist in the care and upbringing of that child. If the custodial parent did not receive that support, then she (or he) made contributions that should have come from the other parent, and the right to collect the back support belongs to her.
Neither the custodial parent's drug use nor the child's age is a defense against not paying past-due child support.
No. Child support arrears are owed to the parent.
You can get awarded child support by a judge, but collecting it is an altogether different situation.
It depends on the state you live in. Some states allow the custodial parent to opt out of child support. Other states don't give you that option, and will collect the child support even if the custodial parent refuses to accept it.
Back dated to what if it's being stopped?
Hopefully, there is insurance or other funds in the will designated for the child. Of course, the child will be eligible for social security benefits if the parent worked.
I doubt there were many child support laws back then. Normally, only the custodial parent of the child can file for child support, not the actual child.
Yes,
Yes.
