The amount will go toward the next payment scheduled. Be aware however that the support collection department collects a month in advance.

Do you have to pay child support for children that are not yours?

Of course not - paternity must be established before support is ordered; I sense that there's more to this question.


How does having more than one child to support from different relationships effect child support amounts?

In general, child support is a percentage of net income. When calculating support for younger children, support actually ordered and paid for older children is subtracted from net income.


Does a social security payment become the child support?

It's more like the other way around. If the child's RSDI benefit is based on the obligor's SSA account, it is considered child support. If that benefit exceeds the amount ordered for child support, the obligor does not owe any additional payment.

Because your child support is court ordered. To change it, you have to go back to court and present reasons for the change.


If you were court ordered to pay child support in a divorce and have more kids later on how do you have the initial amt of child support lowered for the first kid from the divorce?

It depends upon the state you live in and what their laws are regarding modification of child support. In Texas, for example, you would need to file a modification of child support.


How do the courts figure out who pays child support?

This presents an interesting aspect of child support. A sole custodial father, who earns substantially more than the mother can still be ordered to pay child support. In general, it is the parent without primary custody or residency of the children. However, in cases where the state has custody, this is not always evenly applied. Legally, unless the children are receiving AFDC, there is no overriding obligation to order child support, however it is always beneficial that some amount be ordered. Also, the guideline amounts are not mandatory.


If I was ordered to pay child support and now the child has been living with me for the past 4 years I don't think I should have to pay child support any more?

If the child resides with you, and you can prove it with some sort of documentation (a sworn deposition by a third party should suffice), then you can petition the judge who ordered the support to vacate it. If that judge is no longer on the bench, then simply petition the court from which the order originated. You may be able to recover some of the support you have paid if you can show a compelling reason that the child resides with you, and that you have continued to pay support, but this would be a separate petition. You will need to contact your attorney to help also.


Does the mother who files for child support first get more for her child than the other mother who files for support after she does. And will support be decreased or altered for the first one?

No. The family with the older child[ren] gets the full percentage of net income. The family with the younger child[ren] gets a percentage of net income after subtracting payments ordered and being made to the older child[ren].


If no custody agreement made but the mother is ordered to pay child support she has taken the child out of state wont bring her back. school is staring back up and the child is not home. Anyone help?

If child support was ordered, there's a presumption of custody, though you need it clarified in order to file an interference with custody charge. See link below for Dads House for more possibilities on what to do. We will need the states involved.
