If the Mother has received ANY State assistance, and the Father was NOT paying Child Support at any time...The State has every right to demand repayment.
No. If the state is supporting the mother and child the mother has no right to free the father from his responsibility to support his own children. The state will pursue him for child support.
In all U.S. states the biological unwed mother is considered to have sole legal and physical custody of her child. If the biological father wishes to assert his parental rights he must first establish paternity to the child in question and petition the court for visitation privileges or custodial rights. If the mother wishes to pursue child support for the minor child she must show proof of paternity (signed birth certificate, or notarized affidavit for the father). It is the responsibility of the alledged father to prove he is or is not the biological father of the child, regarding custody, visitation and/or obligation of financial support.
Her father was a top civil servant, her mother did not pursue a career.
Child support and visitation rights are two separate issues and they are addressed separately. The father's paternity must be legally established in court if the parents are unmarried and the mother seeks child support. Once paternity has been established, the court will issue a child support order based on state child support guidelines. In addition, once paternity has been established the father has the right to petition for a visitation schedule. If the father fails to pay his child support he is still entitled to visitations. In that case, the mother would need to pursue the child support arrears by filing a motion for contempt of the child support order.
State laws vary but the Child Support Enforcement Division of the State Department of Social Services may be able to pursue child support from the paternal grandparents of the child as long as the father of the child is under eighteen. The mother should visit the local family court and ask to speak with an advocate.
You go back to court and file the papers to do so. The forms are readily available if you want to file them yourself.Another PerspectiveHowever, you should be aware that in the United States most jurisdictions will not allow a mother to waive child support from the child's father. The reason is that the child is entitled to the support of both parents. If the mother doesn't need to money then it should be deposited in the child's name, perhaps for college or whatever the child decides when they reach the age of majority.Also, if the mother is receiving any type of financial assistance the state will pursue child support from the father.
Yes, but you should pursue her father in court for child support.
If the mother is receiving any kind of assisstanse, yes, they will open child support case and pursue it.
Miley Stewart's mother died when she was very young and so Miley went to California with her father and brother to pursue her career as Hannah Montana.

No. However, States will provide public assistance to eligible parents (male or female) and pursue the non-custodial parent for support.
Yes. This is what happened to me. I didnot want to pursue child support but because i received a walfare check, only for 6 month, the state filed the case. If you are on state assistance usually the state will require you to file.
