If a 13 yrs old child wants to move out of mother home does the father still has to pay child support
This depends on what the child support agreement says and what state you live in. The laws are different for each state.
Yes, if she is under the age of 18. At 18 she is an adult, but until then she is a minor and you are the parent so you pay child support.
No, you file to have the custody and support order set aside.
No, visitation and child support are 2 separate entities. The only way this would affect your support amount is if you are set up with 50-50 custody and the child stops going to the other parents house and you take them to court to get primary custody.
Yes until a modification is approved.
I believe the age is 13
Child support needs to be decided on by the court. In most cases, the noncustodial parent is responsible for something. If the custodial parent makes considerably more than the noncustodial parent, monies many not even be exchanged. To resolve this issue, it is best to file papers at your court house.
No, that is up to the parents to decide.
In such a case, the non-custodial father should prepare to begin paying child support.
A non-custodial parent is responsible to pay child support whether or not the custodial parent has a boyfriend or a husband or not. This responsibility continues until the child reaches the age of 18 years unless the child dies or the court takes some action to end that responsibility.
It depends on the court order. if there is a court order established then it will usually state the specifics. You can have private child support which means you pay the custodial parent directly or you can have your check garnished and it can be sent from your employer to the court house of the state of the custodial parent where they will distribute it.
Yes. The non-custodial parent pay child support to the custodial parent regardless whether he is with her every night or not. The money is for providing for the child so as long as he does that you have to. Keeping the money is not helping the child. If you wish to change custody or child support, you have to go back to court. A 16yo is after all old enough to stay home by herself and most 16yo looks forward to get their parents out of the house. It's a part of growing up.
Yes, I was just sued for child support. I was the custodial parent and my ex owes me $30,000 in back child support and because my son didn't like having to do choirs at our house he went to go live with his father. Who in turn sued me for child support and now both my ex and I have to paid our son child support until he is 21 if he continues to go on to college.
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.
