The parties cannot make any changes in the court orders unless they petition the court for a modification. The mother should petition the court ASAP to be allowed to claim the child as her dependent for tax purposes and she should file a motion for contempt as well to collect the child support arrears.

Can the custodial parent deny visitation to the non custodial parent that is behind on child support payments?
No - indeed, some jurisdictions will prosecute for this.
Can you modify an order that the noncustodial parent gets to claim child on their taxes if he has never met child and is behind by 13 grand in child support?
The custodial parent should file for a modification of that order as soon as possible. Also, she should file a motion for contempt at the same time and get an action going for child support arrears.
Is child support in Texas retroactive?
Yes. Here is the link to read on this yourself. http://www.oag.state.tx.us/cs/parents/faq.shtml#behind Yes if the child support is behind since the court date and the date the Child Support was entered into court, then that past due child support is to be paid by the non custodial parent. Usually it is more then the normal monthly or weekly payment such as: The non custodial parent owes 200.00 a week in child support payments. But is behind 2000.00 dollars. So the Child Support Enforcement will send you 250.00 dollars a week, if you are not collecting any welfare support for your child, TANF or Food Stamps and are working steady.. IF the non custodial parent gets a lump sum payment of any sort, lottery winnings, Federal and State Taxes.. that will go to you for the behind amount owed. So yes. It is retroactive though you will not get it until the child support is paid by the non custodial parent pays. And this is in most states not just Texas.
What actions can be taken on a non-custodial father who is behind on child support and he is out running the streets on drugs?
He can be subsequently jailed for drug charges and that he's an endangerment to his children due to the choice of lifestyle. Liens can be placed on property of value like his car or anything of value to get the behind child support. * Child support arrearages is a civil matter and has nothing to do with the alledged drug activities. Recovery of child support arrearages and enforcement of child support orders can be done in two ways, by the custodial parent filing a lawsuit in the state circuit court in the county of residence or by enlisting the assistance of the state's child support enforcement agency. If the father has visitation or custodial rights and he is placing the child in jeopardy by his lifestyle the custodial parent should request an investigation by the state's department of child protective services.
Can a custodial parent stop the non-custodial parents visitation if they are behind on child support?
No, they are separate issues. If the custodial parent stops visitations they would be in violation of a court order. The custodial parent must address the child support arrears as a separate matter by filing a contempt order with the court.
Can noncustodial parent stop arrears childsupport?
No. That is not up to the child. If child support payments are in arrears, it means that the custodial parent was not receiving the child support as provided in the child support order issued by the court and the non-custodial parent was in contempt of a court order. The arrears are also set forth in a court order. The funds are owed to the custodial parent. Therefore, the debt cannot be "forgiven" by the child even if they are an adult.
Can the custodial parent claim both children and the earned income credit on their tax return if the non-custodial parent is behind on child support but usually you each claim one child?
The custodial Parent has the right to claim both children, but in your case if the NC parent is behind they will automatically take it from their tax refund anyway. But as with any agreement if it states the NC gets to claim one then you can only claim one. If there is not an agreement in that way, then the custodial has the right. The arrears owed to the C has no affect on the claiming rights of another.

Can someone be jailed for arrears?

What percentage of a non custodial parents income can you receive if you are filing behind someone else already existing court order child support in IL?
In general, child support is a percentage of net income - in Illinois, 20% for one child. When calculating support for younger children, support actually ordered and paid for older child[ren] is subtracted from net income.
Does a non custodial parent have to continue to pay child support if the child lives with the non custodial for a period of a year and the non custodial parent is almost 30 thousand dollars behind in?
The way it breaks down is for every month the child was with the custodial parent, that child had needs. those needs needed to be met and paid for by on of the parents, generally on a half and half basis. If the dues have been paid up until the point when the child moves into a non-custodial parents home, the laws become fuzzy, but still favor the custodial parent. Even if the child goes to live with the non-custodial parent while he/she still owes money for past due child support, he/she still must pay that as if it were a debt to a creditor. Even after the 18th birthday of the child, the "bill" still is a valid debt, and legal action may be taken if unpaid. I have known a man in his 70's paying past due child support on 3 of his children ages 40, 46, and 53.
What happens if you are 21000 behind in back child support but you are paying just the current child support?
The custodial parent can take you to court for contempt and the court can issue a new order for payment of the arrears. At the request of the custodial parent, the state may take various actions to collect that support, such as asking the courts to put you in jail for contempt, taking your tax refund or serving a wage assignment on your employer. You should be making payments against the arrears. You may be able to negotiate a cash settlement for a lesser amount if you can borrow the money to pay the arrears. For example, the custodial parent may agree to accept $15,000 if paid immediately.
