The terms of a custody agreement can vary. To determine if the absent parent is required to help pay for university, you must refer to your custody agreement.
No, you can not collect child support if the absent parent collects ssi. No matter what state you are in, anywhere in the united states. It's against the law!
If you are an absent parent of the child, yes.
No, they have to be financially able to support themselves and the child though.
No.
Yes.
No, that alone is not a reason to terminate custody. The non-custodial parent should be paying child support.
Only if the obligee parent is deceased and with the approval of the court.
If the child is severely disabled, perhaps.
If on SSI, no. If on SSD, there's a separate SSD Child Benefit check that's not deducted from the parent's child, but a modification needs to be requested to set the support to the amount of this check. This will not address any arrears. see links below
You, (the Absent Parent), and the Custodial Parent both go to your local Child Support Office and file a motion to be heard in front of a judge (in most cases, it's heard on a separate date from the date you file the motion) to cease child support. On the date of the court date, you both appear before a judge and he/she will ask the Custodial Parent if this is his/her wishes. The Custodial Parent will then answer according to how they see fit. The Custodial Parent can also at that time request that all monies owed to him/her from back support that the Absent Parent has not yet satisfied be forgotten. This will clear the slate for the Absent Parent as far as arrears is concerned. Note, this will not clear any monies owed to the State that the Custodial Parent may have received i.e. TANF. You, the Absent Parent, will still be held responsible for paying this back and your child support will continue-only for repayment of State funds received on behalf of the child-until paid in full.
Most single parents do not pay child support. The absent parent pays the child support.
A parent quits paying child support when the child reaches the age of 18
