They should pay like anyone else, but not in cash. It should be a money order or other format where you can prove you have paid for the child's support. Then, if you manage to become eligible for citizenship, lack of payments will not hold you back.
For the same reason everybody else pay child support - to support your child! Just because one parent is a illegal alien does not make the child any less yours.
AnswerIm illegal alien, my ex is illegal alien and the kid is illegal alien, guess what i have to pay child support, laws are for everyone not matter your status as long your feets are in U.S.
No.
No, but it is a bit confusing.
I would turn him in to INS and have him taken to court for child support
If he is illegal, then you have no foot to stand on. He will likely be deported if any state authority finds out he is illegal. If he becomes legal, then he must pay. If not, then he doesn't have to do anything for you.not true, illegal or not he is the father and will have to pay child support. my husband has a child from a previous marriage and we pay child support, but a few years ago before we were married he left and returned to Mexico for a few months. his ex filled for child support through the state and received it, and we are paying that back to the state as well. you need to talk to him about paying you, and if he refuses, then contact your state child support office and tell them you situation.AnswerDepending on your age you could end up in jail youself for statutory rape. It's hard to get child support for your child from the child you slept with.
All children deserve to be supported by both parents, whether they are illegally in the country or not, since that is not the child's doing. However, if there is no support order in place you are not legally obligated to pay.
An illegal alien would not be taken to court to be sued for child support because he would have no documentation. If he was taken, he would probably be held and perhaps deported.
Because he's an illegal alien... plus, he most certainly can work; just not a tax paying/reporting job.
If there is a court order for visitation or custody it is illegal to not follow the court order. Child support, custody and visitation are 3 separate issues in court. Paying child support or not is not a reason to take away the child's right to see his/hers parent.
Exactly how could that be done?
Yes. If the the first cousin is one of the parents of the child and has a job but refuses to pay for food and clothing, and you are caring for the child, you qualify to file for child support. You may not be able to marry the first cousin as that is illegal in some but not all jurisdictions, but you can file for child support.
