It sounds like you would be expecting a refund. You owe your mortgage payments even if your house gets destroyed. If you paid six months ahead your money is gone. You won't get it back but it would reduce what you own on your mortgage. However, if you have a mortgage then it is likely you have homeowner's insurance that would restore/repair your dwelling.

You may also be expected to make your monthly payments. If you are contemplating this type of move it would be best to discuss it with your mortgage company before you send in any extra payments.

If you have an order to make mortgage payments in Lieu of childsupport What if you fall behind on the payments Is it contempt?

It may be. More importantly, do you want your child to be homeless? If you fall far enough behind on the mortgage payments the mortgage company could foreclose ... and then where would your child be? More likely, your state will go to your employer to garnish your wages for the payments to make sure you fulfill the arrearage and stay on time with future payments. Answer these questions for yourself: are your car payments on time? are your rent/mortgage payments on time? have you bought yourself any clothing in the past couple months? have you bought any gifts for others in the past couple months? have you gone out to eat in the past couple months? If your answer to any of these is YES, then tighten your belt, grow up, lose the self-indulgence and act like an adult ... a parent. Short of significant physical injury or illness beyond your control, you will face consequences.

What are the causes of foreclosure?

non-payment of mortgage payments exceeding 2 to 3 months. If the mortgage company does not receive timely payments, they can decide to foreclose. Once they have made that decision it is very hard to correct. If you cannot make your payment call the mortgage company. Communication can go a long way to prevent foreclosure.
