Is child support in Texas retroactive?

Yes. Here is the link to read on this yourself. http://www.oag.state.tx.us/cs/parents/faq.shtml#behind Yes if the child support is behind since the court date and the date the Child Support was entered into court, then that past due child support is to be paid by the non custodial parent. Usually it is more then the normal monthly or weekly payment such as: The non custodial parent owes 200.00 a week in child support payments. But is behind 2000.00 dollars. So the Child Support Enforcement will send you 250.00 dollars a week, if you are not collecting any welfare support for your child, TANF or Food Stamps and are working steady.. IF the non custodial parent gets a lump sum payment of any sort, lottery winnings, Federal and State Taxes.. that will go to you for the behind amount owed. So yes. It is retroactive though you will not get it until the child support is paid by the non custodial parent pays. And this is in most states not just Texas.

Do you have to take your kids for out of state visitation if your ex is thousands of dollars behind in child support?

If there is a court order for visitation privileges it must be obeyed. Visitation and child support are treated as two entirely different issues. Just as an obligated parent is in contempt of a court order when they do not pay the mandated child support a custodial parent could be in contempt for not adhering to the visitation terms.

Will a parent win custody of a child and get child support if they did not get custody of a different child from a previous marriage and is behind on that child's support?

Here their chances are very slim indeed as they have not paid up for the child's support, and they may do it again or have done it before that is why they did not get custody of the child from a previous marriage.
