Factors that determine whether or not a lawsuit will be initiated vary from creditor to creditor. If the account is sold to a third party collector and that agency believes it can collect on the debt a lawsuit is possible. If the person is gainfully employed and/or has nonexempt assets that can be seized a lawsuit is more likely. The SOL for the state of residency also plays a part in when a lawsuit might be filed. However, the suit can be filed the day before the SOL expires, but might not reach court for another year or more. It is best to be prepared in the event of legal action. The person involved should find out what property exemptions they are entitled to under the laws of their state. More importantly if they are a homeowner, they need to be absolutely positive the homestead exemption is filed, or is already valid under the state's laws....Macky (macky83@juno.com)

When there is a question of back child support where is the burden of proof?

The burden of proof is on the payee (the one receiving payments). If a support order was filed - the payee contacts the state agency to "go after" the payor.

They can then garnish IRS tax refunds and issue additional child support payment amounts to repay the arrearage.
