You have to pay the amount of child support ordered by the courts. The only way your inheritance might come into play is if your ex decides to take you back to court to get more child support.

Do you have to share your inheritance with your separated spouse in canada?

It depends on who the inheritance was declared to. If you're no longer living together then I would say no, but you should talk to a lawyer if this person is giving you trouble about it.

Parents have an obligation to support their minor children. If your spouse is not doing so, he (I'm assuming it's a he) can be compelled to by a court. So, yes.


Can you sue your spouse for child support they were not entitled to?

It appears the question is: "Can you sue a spouse (or former spouse) for child support that is overpaid, and to which the receiving spouse was not entitled to receive?" The short answer is "Yes". The longer answer is that over payments of child support are subject to being recaptured by the paying spouse or former spouse so long as the demand for payment and suit to recover the payments is brought within the applicable statute of limitations for suit upon a debt. In Texas, for example, there are two statutes of limitations on debts - a two year statute for oral debts or debts for injuries (such as fraud), and a four year statute for written debts or debts from a contract. In this case, is is assumed that the overpaid child support arises from following a separation order (a contract in Texas) or a court support order (either a contract or a written debt), and the four year statute of limitations should apply. The final answer is - make sure that what you are demanding for payment is worth the trouble and hassle of a lawsuit. It is pretty silly to sue someone for a few hundred bucks when the attorney's fees will surely eat that up completely, plus all the bad blood the lawsuit will spill over your already torn up family may make you the total bad guy. However, if the overpayment is substantial - gung ho!

Can you will away your wifes inheritance?

This is vague, so I'll answer what I think you are trying to ask. If you are trying to write your wife out of your will, it depends. Most states have something called "years support" where a surviving spouse is entitled to a minimum amount of inheritance. However, once that minimum amount is met, it is possible to will the remainder of your estate to others, as you please. If you are asking about an inheritance that your wife received from another party, you're going to have to be more specific.
