Yes, but it has to be court ordered, and must come from both parents.
401k's can be seized for child support. For college payments or attorney's fees, not likely.
Get the support order modified to allow this - do not make direct payments on your own. Also check with your tax man. If the child lives away from home, while in college, this may change you deduction status. View my profile
Don't ever send child support payments directly to anyone! Send them through your State's disbursement unit or the courts, and age 21 is the cutoff age.
You cannot pay child support directly to your children. It usually stops at 18 but differs slightly between states and can be prolonged if the child is in college. You need to check your particular child support order, separation agreement and state law. Child support is paid to the custodial parent and not the child. After 18, and usually when the child is attending college, the parents may be able to have the support order modified to be paid to the child if they both agree.
That's depend on state laws. see link
Generally, child support payments coincide with the frequency that the obligor receives income. How quickly the obligee receives those payments is a function of how efficient the payor of income is in forwarding them to the State and how efficient the State is in distributing them.
No. The court's role is to distribute payments they receive from the obligors.
Probably not, unless it has to do with child support. Basically, only support payments and debts due to Governments can get to directly intercept refunds. Of course, the moment you receive the refund it loses it's identity and any protection.
Don't pay either. Send your payments to the court or the State disbursement unit; otherwise, you might end up paying twice.
No, support payments must be rendered to the custodial parent or legal guardian or authorized state agency.
The terms of the support order dictate to whom and for how long the alloted amount should be rendered. If the order does not contain such specifics, the support money can be sent to the child if said child has reached the age of majority for the state of residence.
