The non-custodial parent can petition the court for such an arrangement but it will be up to the court to decide. An argument could be made that might not be in the best interest of the child if he/she won't be able to maintain the same school and group of friends. You should consult with an attorney who could review your situation and explain your options.
The custodial parent is the parent in which the child resides with. My son lives with me and I am the custodial parent, his dad has visitation rights and pays child support.
Not if your the parent taking care of the child.
Yes, the custodial parent can obtain a passport for their child with proper documentation and consent from the other parent if applicable.
No, the custodial parent does not have to work to get their support. The support goes from the child's other biological parent.Ê
Of course. Unless the non-custodial parent takes sole custody, the non-custodial parent is still responsible for paying child support to whomever the child goes to. There is no reason the death of a parent should terminate the other parent's child support obligation.
no
Not without the consent of the non-custodial parent ! The other parent has a right to know who their child has been left with (and perhaps would take the child themselves as a better guardian).
Yes, if the father is the custodial parent. It works just the same as when the mother is the custodial parent. The non-custodial pay child support based on their income and other factors.
In this case the other parent is no longer the custodial parent. If the child is now staying with another guardian, they are now considered the custodial guardian and child support should be paid to them.
Go back to the custodial court. Most custody orders and visitation orders etc have a provision against alienation of the child against the other parent.
Yes, but the other parent can challenge it.
