surrendering parental rights will free you from child support obligations only if pursuant to surrendering the rights, the child is ADOPTED. this does not include temporary custody in most states.
This also only applies to FURTHER child support obligations, and does not change any "owed" child support, not paid up to the date of adoption.
I believe that the mother should get custody and she gives the father a schedule to be on.
Unless there are unusually circumstances, once a minor becomes an adult under the laws of the state in which he or she lives (or as stated in the support order) child support ends. If he or she has established residence outside the custodial parent's home with the approval of the custodial parent, the obligated parent should petition the court to have the support order amended or rescinded. Child support money is for the support of minor children and not "owed" to the custodial parent. The custodial parent does have the legal right to sue the obligated parent for any arrearages or "extra" expenses incurred while the minor child was in his or her care.
If there is an order through the courts for you to pay child support...then you must pay child support! If circumstances have changed since the last order was made by the court, you need to go back to court and have the support and custody orders modified. If you just don't want to pay child support because you have possession of the kids for the month of July...that is too bad. You are still not the custodial parent and you are still ordered to pay child support. Child support was designed to allow the custodial parent to maintain a certain way of life for your child...and even though your child is with you for visitation doesn't mean you aren't still responsible for providing the support the court ordered. It will depend on the jurisdiction and the manner in which maintenance is calculated. In my case the mother and I share the total combined costs of our daughter in proportion to our incomes. It works out that I pay 60% and she pays 40%. That applies whether our daughter is resident with me or with her mother. In California, as well as several states, visitation and access time is considered a deductible item in the calculations for child support. The drawback of this is that the custodial parent will deny the other parent access for some period of time, than file for an increase in support. In other states, for extended Summer visitation, this is often figured into the calculations, than the payment averaged out, however it is not mandatory and depends on whether your attorney raised the question. For this, you will need to check your case file to see what was considered. Talk to the Clerk of the Court about that. While you're at it, purchase a copy of all the relevant material, including a new copy of your custody orders, for your personal files. You should check this file yearly. In states like Missouri, when you've had the child for 30 days, you can request the child support stop. The drawback of this is that visitation is never set for longer than four weeks. see links below
report that you are no longer a dependent receiving benifit of this support.
No. Jon and Kate Gosselin no longer live together. See the related question about the custody arrangements.
No, if the mother voluntarily gives cutody to someone else, she can no longer be paid child support because she no longer has custody of the child. What happens now is the father can obtain custody because he does have rights or the person who has custody and have legal guardianship can file for assistance in which child support can be included or filed.

Yes, even if the mother never did.
The biological parents are responsible to pay for their child and will have to pay child support so unless the parents take care of it the family member have to go to court and apply for it if the child will be staying for a longer period or time.
Yes, if the child is still a minor or is no longer a minor but is severely handicapped.
Given that the court has given custody to you, any deviation is in violation of the court order. Typically at 18 they are no longer a minor and can choose where to live. Your child support payments are dependant upon the court order. Her choice of living arrangements after 18 will not obligate you to pay child support. You/she/mother could petition the court to change the custody and support arrangements.
In general, the parent or guardian with the most parenting time is eligible to receive child support from the non-custodial parent. You do not need to be the child's biological parent to receive child support.
You now only have physical custody, but both you and your husband have equal custody rights to the child. That means he has a right to have physical custody too, and will not get into any trouble if he physically takes the child into his care. If you are afraid he might take the child, you will need to obtain a temporary custody order, signed by a judge, to make sure you become the custodial parent. That said, depending on your husband, the longer you have physical custody of the child, the more difficult it will be for your husband to obtain legal custody should you divorce.
This is in regards to temporary custody only (meaning three months or less). In such a situation all that is needed is written authorization (preferably notarized) from the parent(s) giving the chosen adult permission to obtain medical care and if applicable school enrollment. During their absence the parent(s) should (1) Visit at least once a week if at all possible. (2) Speak on the phone 1-2 times per week. (3) Write letter(s) weekly. (4)Provide financial support. It's very important the authorization includes the date the temporary custody begins and ends. Any situation that would be longer than three months should be discussed with legal counsel.
Generally, custody must be changed through the court and if the parents agree a modification of the custody order must be filed and allowed. However, an eighteen year old is no longer subject to custody orders in most jurisdictions. You should check with the court to see if the custody order is still in effect.Generally, custody must be changed through the court and if the parents agree a modification of the custody order must be filed and allowed.

Yes. Child support is for the "custodial parent". If you are not living at home with your custodial parent, then they are no longer eligible to receive child support. However, the non-custodial parent can request a modification if the child is no longer living with the custodial parent and that includes a change of custody. A 17 yr old is not emancipated in Texas, unless proper procedures through the courts have taken place. If that is the case, then the custodial parent and child are no longer eligible for child support.
** Life is a temporary phenomenon- A duration between birth and death. Death is permanent. And we all know that what is permanent is longer than what is but temporary.... So life is not longer than death...
