Who pays child support when no legal custody has been established?
Determining child support has only one goal which is to determine medical, financial and daycare support. Custody is NOT determined when child support is established. To establish child support you have to go to court. Otherwise if the mother was unwed and paternity/custody is not established she automatically has sole custody which entitles you to pay her child support but you are not entitled to visitation, school/dr records etc unless she gives them to you... If custody is not established then the mother has custody

Yes, if an order is issued.
If mom is on welfare with no job can dad get full custody?
If the mother has interrupted her career more than the father for her children, surely she has the better argument for custody? Custody should depend on how the children are treated, not on how hard the mother found it/finds it to get a job. The father would probably have to work less when they have custody of the children anyway.
Can you get custody of your child if the mother is underage and you are not?
No. A court would not remove a child from its mother's custody for that single reason. The court would not punish a mother for being underage by removing her child from her custody and reward the man who caused the pregnancy by having sexual relations with a minor. In fact, perhaps you could be prosecuted for having sexual relations with a minor. You would need compelling evidence that the child is not being cared for properly, enough to convince the court that the mother is unfit.It is assumed that you are unmarried. You need to establish your paternity in court. Once established, you can request joint custody, visitations and the court can issue a child support order based on your state's child support guidelines.See related question.No. A court would not remove a child from its mother's custody for that single reason.

Can your mother who has custody give you custody if you are 16?
Do you mean can she agree to emancipate you? Even if she's willing to agree to it, the court still has to approve it, which means that you would have to meet all of your state's requirements for emancipation, such as having the ability to fully support yourself.
Does the father still pay child support if the mother voluntarily gives custody to someone else?
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.
