Child support is based on net income. The courts can require the obligor to look for work if they decide that his non-work income is not sufficient to support the child.

If you have been late on payments several times but never sixty days past due can car be repossessed?

You would have to read the contract to see if someone can "legally" repossess it. But ultimately, there is someone, somewhere who makes a decision. This person can continuously let is slide, or they can just get fed up one day and take, or have someone take your car. They also know that if you cannot afford payments then you will definitely not be able to afford back payments, penalty payments, and current payments all at the same time. Nor, can you afford an attorney.

What can you do if you have a child on the way and your car payments are now too high to afford but you got a great rate at 2.9 when you bought the car?

Sell the car person-to-person. Never take it to a dealership to sell or trade, you almost never get what it is worth. If you cannot sell the car, try refinancing. You'll get a higher APR and pay more interest in the long run, but you can extend payments and keep your car (plus afford the payments). give the car back buy a 500 dollar special, spend the car payment on the kid
