The benefit is that your child is getting financial support from BOTH parents for all the things that he she needs. Food, shelter, clothing, education, etc. These things really DO add up!
No he can not.
If a court has ordered you to pay child support, then you must pay child support. Whether or not you receive tax credits has nothing to do with it.
No. If a parent is getting RSDI, the child should be getting RSDI, also. The child's benefit counts as child support. In many cases, this means that the NCP does not owe any additional payment.
Anyone with a child.
yes, if the child is no longer eligible for the benefit
In most states, child support continues until the child graduates high school or until their 19th birthday, whichever comes first. Very few states continue child support past a child's 19th birthday.
Since November 2nd 2009,child benefit is no longer counted as income for housing benefit assessment.
If the father is on the birth certificate you will still get all your incomes. The only way this could change for you is if the father had full custody or lived in the home.
Technically, he's still on the hook. However, the child's RSDI benefit counts as child support, so it's unlikely he'll have to pay anything himself.
Yes - the child's needs continue.
Whether or not the child is disabled: Child support that's properly paid does not ever have to be reimbursed; unpaid child support is collectible forever.
