The easiest way is to pay off the child support! Otherwise, you have to go to court and get the judge to waive it.


If back child support is owed but you are paying on it and you are getting an IRS tax refund Do you get the refund or is it used to pay on your child support?

I actually pay child support to my son's father (all for the sake of a better schooling system) and my tax refund is always taken, as a matter of fact, anything in the form of payment with my social security number is taken to pay back child support. I always receive a letter from the dept. of taxation titled: offsset, but it's always all taken. I once won $1500 on a lottery scratch off and that was intercepted by child support! I have other children, not the same father as my son and I live in low income housing and I am always behind in payments, plus the arrears. I am told the only way to break this cycle of what I call "Voluntary Poverty" is to die or claim bankruptcy...and I don't know which is actually more helpful.


IS there a way to get out of Child Support if the Child isn't your child?

Get a DNA test. Then if it proves the child isn't yours you won't have to pay child support. You might even be a able to get back the money you have already paid in child support.

Do you owe your child's mother child support if the child has a child of her own?

Yes. You have to legally support the child until she is 18; the only way you don't have to is if the court terminates the child support. You cannot (legally) decide yourself that you no longer have to take care of your child.


Can child support be raised if I am now married with a baby on the way?

If you are in the US, the fact that you are now married/pregnant has no effect on child support for another child.


Can a father ask for a reduction in child support when he has a child with another person?

Let's think about this. The court has determined that a child needs a certain amount is needed to take care of him. Having a child by someone else doesn't change the first child's needs in any way. If I was the judge, I'd be thinking how many kids does this guy want to support? and wouldn't consider changing the amount. In a way it would be rewarding the guy for having another kid. NOTE: The above is someones personal opinion. FACT: Child support is based on a formula generated by the courts and the number of children outside of the child needing child support is indeed in the formula. If someone goes on to have more children, the added expense is taken into consideration when calculating child support. Consult an attorney about this.


How do you find out if your husband paid off his back child support?

The only way that comes to mind is, get him to show you that he has. The courts/state will not likely release this information to you.


Can a husband be responsible for child support for kids that are not his in the state of Idaho?

No, a person will not be ordered to pay child support on any children that are not his. The only way a person would be ordered to pay child support a child who is not theirs is if they had legally adopted that child.


Can your income be garnished if you pay child support?

Not sure in what context you mean, but yes a court order can garnish your wages for child support. IF the custodial parent has filed a support order and paternity has been established then YES absolutely your wages can be garnished. If you mean that a creditor filed judgment against you and you are the one receiving child support, they cannot touch that money, but if you are getting those direct deposited and the creditor attaches the order to your bank account the child support can be taken indirectly that way. Good luck
