Technically arrears cannot be waived. However, a custodial parent can fill out a form stating that no child support is due.
Yes, it can. Moving in with the other parent is grounds for "flipping" child support payments. However, this must be done by court order.
Arrears and current support, also, unless/until the child is adopted.
no
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.
A single parent and their child/children moving in with a relative will not change the status of the non-custodial parent's legal responsibility to support his or her child or children. The court bases the decision of how much support should be paid on the income of the obligated parent and what the child's or children's economic level would have been if the parents had not separated. If you know his name, and where he is stationed, you can contact that installation's Inspector General and file a complaint. There are specific service regulations that mandate a servicemember's payment of child support. If you are fighting to have court-ordered child support enforced, the Inspector General can assist with either enforcement or other resolution.
Yes. Child support is for the "custodial parent". If you are not living at home with your custodial parent, then they are no longer eligible to receive child support. However, the non-custodial parent can request a modification if the child is no longer living with the custodial parent and that includes a change of custody. A 17 yr old is not emancipated in Texas, unless proper procedures through the courts have taken place. If that is the case, then the custodial parent and child are no longer eligible for child support.
If the arrangement is with the consent of the custodial parent and will be permanent then the custody and child support orders must be modified to reflect the change in legal custody. The parent in Texas needs to have their custody formalized by a court order so they can enroll the child in school, consent to medical treatment, etc. If the child support order is not modified the non-custodial parent may be subject to the accumulation of child support arrears.
Yes, if it is so ordered in the child support agreement. If the parent loses their insurance and the custodial parent has the ability to insure the child - it will be possible for the state to order the custodial parent to do so. This may change the amount of support the non custodial parent pays - it is entirely up to the whim of the courts.
You can't. One has nothing to do with the other.
Spouses are not responsible for their spouse's children. But, he needs to get a modification.SEE LINKS BELOW
No, but the new CP should get into court right away, get legal custody and get the order for support terminated. Initially, contact the AG with evidence that you have possession of the child. They can initiate a modification request. see link
In general, no. (I suppose the answer might be different if she married Donald Trump.)

Not arbitrarily. The custodial parent would have to receive permission from the court for the change in residence.
Yes, it can. Moving in with the other parent is grounds for "flipping" child support payments. However, this must be done by court order.
Yes, it does not matter where the child lives, you still have to pay it. The child does not stop being yours just because he/she lives in another state.
Arrears and current support, also, unless/until the child is adopted.
