The non-custodial parent should file for visitation rights for the child in the county where custody was given.

If the parent who has custody of the child is preventing the non-custodial parent the right of visitation they can be found in contempt of court if visitation has already been established.

If the custodial parent has too many repeated contempts filed against them, custody can be switched to the other parent.

If there is a court order for visitation privileges it must be obeyed. Visitation and child support are treated as two entirely different issues.

Can the noncustodial parent receive child support money back if not receiving visitation?

No, child support is calculated based on physical custody, which is different than visitation time. If you are not receiving your court-ordered visitation, contact your local Department of Human Services and let them know. However, you must still pay your court-ordered child support.


Your ex wants child support but you can not have visitation?

In the US, child support and visitation are two separate things. You are legally responsible for financially supporting your child rather you have visitation or not. If your ex refuses to allow visitation then you need to petition for court-ordered visitation. If you obtain that and the ex still refuses, then s/he is in violation of a court order and there are consequences for that. If, on the other hand, you don't have visitation because the court refuses to allow it (for whatever reason)...well, that's a different issue.
