Can you receive a welfare check if you already receive child support in the state of California?

Yes, it is possible to receive both welfare benefits and child support in the state of California. Eligibility for welfare benefits is determined by different factors such as income and need. Child support is a separate financial obligation that the noncustodial parent is responsible for providing. These two types of assistance can be received concurrently.

You have one child for whom you receive child support and another child of a different father. Is your child support affected by your having to care for both children?

Not really. It is based on a percentage of the pay of the parent paying child support and the number of children that are his/hers with the custodial parent.AnswerThe child support you receive for the first child from her father is not affected by your having another child by a different father. The first father is only responsible for supporting his own biological child.


If the custodial parent two children give one of the children back to the father does the father still have to pay child support for the one child that stayed with the mother or are they even?

No, the father has to pay child support for both children. Of course the child that decides to live with him will be treated as he/she were when you were both married, but the child you have will still continue to receive child support by law!
