What other action is required to amend the child support agreement after custodial and non-custodial parents agree on payments?
RiyaBlake
This type of modification must be granted by the court so you'll need to schedule a new hearing and get the judge to sign off on your amendment. An agreement between you and your ex-spouse alone is not sufficient to allow you to decrease your child support payments, however most judges will grant this type of request when both parties are in agreement.

If a non custodial parent has been in prison for ten years of the child's life are they required to make back child support payments for the time period that they were in prison?
Most likely, no. But the custodial parent could (possibly) get a court order for them to pay it. Most people would just be satisfied to have the payments resume and not request back payments.
Does the wife of the noncustodial parent that owes child support have to pay the custodial parent child support if the noncustodial parent is not working?
It depends on the state. If your state calculates child support based on household income, then yes, she would be required to pay her husband's child support. If your state calculates child support based on only the non-custodial parent's income, then no, should would not be required to pay. However, her husband would still owe that money, and it will continue to accumulate as a debt until he pays it.

Can you just have a custody order in place and no child support order?
Yes, as they are separate issues. However, a custodial parent can request a child support order at any time. Also, some jurisdictions do not allow parents to decide that the non-custodial parent will not pay child support. The view is that every child is entitled to be supported by both parents. If the custodial parent doesn't need it then the payments should be placed in a savings account to pay for college. Also, if the custodial parent and child are receiving any assistance then the non-custodial parent will be required make payments to the state.
Typically is a noncustodial parent required to pay for half of braces?
In very basic terms the noncustodial parent is only required to pay child support and for the child's needs when in their care so no legally does not need to pay half of anything else the custodial parent wants for their child but morally does your child need braces because of medical reasons (as apposed to cosmetic reasons)? Can the other parent not afford them by themselves? This is your decision unless the custodial parent went through their lawyers to see if they could get a court order to get you to pay but I dont think that would happen as that costs a lot of money in itself.
Is a non custodial parent responsible for dental insurance?
This should be outlined in your custody and child support agreement. The custody agreement should specify which parent is required to provide medical and dental insurance. Some states even require that both parents provide insurance for the child if it's available. Check your custody agreement. If it does not specify which parent is required to provide the insurance, typically the custodial parent will pay the bill and the non-custodial parent will reimburse them for half.
How does a state calculate how much child support an absentee parent must pay?
Child support payments are calculated depending on the non custodial parent's income. If the non custodial parent is only working part time, they might be required by a judge to seek a full time job.
