Massachusetts, California, Indiana, Montana, & Ohio.
Note that in Massachusetts, it is also applicable to increase an alimony payment.
However, in all states, it is presentable under a Rebuttable Presumption argument.
The US Constitution requires States to give "full faith and credit" to the laws and orders of other States. However, the mechanisms for enforcing spousal support are much more limited than those for enforcing child support.
* All US states allow wage garnishment for creditor debt with the exception of Pennsylvania, South Carolina, North Carolina and Texas (depending upon the debtor's circumstances). All US states allow income garnishment for child support, tax arrearages and in some states spousal support (alimony).
currently how many states are considered as non spousal states in us?
No, the support of children is the sole responsibility of the biological parent(s) not a new wife or husband. The income of the new spouse could be affected if the couple have joint accounts that are subject to attachment for child support arrearages or other judgment actions.
No, it is not considered income.
All of them
This answer is for SPOUSAL support and not CHILD support. It lasts for as long as the divorce decree states. It usually ends upon the re-marriage of the spouse who is receiving the support, or upon that person's death. can i also get alimony? and medical coverage?
In some states, 20% of your income can be used. see link
Income, if it is personal income from employment, which is deposited into a personal account, not a joint one, is never community property. In the instance that it is (which could be the case in some states) it ceases to be community property when the divorce is set in motion (ie when the petition is filed.) Spousal support, if you are referring to court-ordered support, must be requested pendente lite if you want to receive it before the final judgment is entered. ALL BILLS, however, must continue to be paid... if one has personal credit card bills, they are responsible for them. You cannot cancel their insurance, health, life, auto, homeowners. You are not to make any large purchases, sell cars or other real property.
It depends upon the laws of the state in which the beneficiary of the disability award resides. Some states allow for such garnishment, some do not, but all US states allow disabililty garnishment when it relates to child support obligations.
Yes, as all states do.
