Does the father have to pay child support if the child lives on their own in Mississippi?

A minor child should not be living on their own. If the child has been legally emancipated the parent may be excused from paying child support. Otherwise, they will be assessed if the custodial parent files a petition for child support with the court. At that time the fact of the child living on their own can be brought to the attention of the court.A minor child should not be living on their own.

If a boy and girl have a baby at 16 and the girl keeps the baby from the boy and then asked for Child support would this child support come from the boy's mother since she is the only parent?

The biological parents pay for their child, not the grandparents. Both of you needs to get jobs and should have done so before the child arrived. When you petition the court for child support the father have establish paternity so they know he is the biological father. He can also petition for visitation and custody since being the biological father, that is his right. Just as it is the child's right to both parents. You can not choose that the father will have no contact with his child. That is up to the court. He has rights just like you. And so does your child.


Can a grandma get child support from a mom and dad who don't care for their children?

Any grandparent(s) who are the primary caregivers for their grandchildren or any child of the family and not living in the same residence as the children's parents is entitled to be reimbursed for the care of those children. To be eligible for such support the grandparent must be able to show the court that the caregiving of the children is done from necessity and not just a "family matter". Or the grandparent(s) may file a petition for custody if that has not yet been done, if custody is granted, child support will be ordered as well. Contact the clerk of the circuit court in the county of residence for more information on the laws of the state in which you reside and filing procedures. Or contact the state's department of family and childrens services.


Can the custodial parent stop a child support order?

Yes..by all means yes they can. If the custodial parent no longer wants child support from non-custodial parent the custodial parent must petition the court to end the order. The order must be signed by a judge. However ended the support will zero out any late payments also.

Child support on a mom who can make more money but wont just to get more child support?

You need to file a petition for child support modification and income investigation with the court. It will take some time, but the result may be in your and the child's favor. However, the court may consider your income also and is it necessary and do your child need more money before they initiate any action.


What do you do if child stay with you and you paying child support?

If both of the child and other parent are living with you then you can indeed NOT pay child support, but that decision has to come from the Judge. You have the support somehow, and with child living with you and you proving clothing, food, etc to child child then you are doing your part. You need to provide evidence of what you spend to support the child, such as receipts, etc, and also provide evidence that child lives with you, such as video tapes, pictures of child bedroom. If the other parent just left the child with you and took off, then you could file for legal custody, on the basis of child abandonment. You can file both petition at your local family court (Termination of child support, full custody).


Can you file for a passport in another state If you owe back child support in one state can you be denied if you file for a passport in another state?

Child support is tracked by the federal government, not just the various states. On a personal note, you should be catching up on child support since that is more important than traveling. It is not just the money, it is the support of the child(ren) that you chose to bring into the world. Don't let them down.

How do you apply for child support if the the father stays in another state?

Just file where you are at and give his address. They will handle it from there.


If the parents were never married and the father never paid child support does he have the right to just take the child?

No. An unmarried woman has full legal and physical custody rights to her child until/unless the court rules otherwise. Paternity must be established (preferably by DNA testing) before an assumed father can petition the court for custodial or visitation rights and before the mother can file suit for child support. Please note, child support, custodial rights and visitation privileges are entirely separate matters and are treated as such by the domestic court.


If a non-custodial father is in prison can he put a freeze on his child support or will it continue to add up?

Other states might be different, but in MN it will continue to add up, just because he is in jail doesn't mean the kid doesn't need to eat. No. In all US states court ordered child support will continue to be in affect while the person is incarcerated and the obligated parent will be held liable for arrearages. ---- In California, child support obligations will continue to accrue while you're down. You just simply need to petition the court for a change in child support because of a drastic change in your circumstances. When you get out, she'll have to file one to get it increased. You can file the paperwork yourself. If money's an issue, ask for a fee waiver form.

Can the custodial parent in a West Virginia child support case terminate enforcement proceedings against the noncustodial parent?

They may, by contacting the child support agency with jurisdiction for the necessary paperwork. You must be willing to forgive past due child support, not just stop the agency from going after them at any given time. Or you can petition the court for a hearing regarding your wish to forgive back child support.


Do you have to pay child support if you are only 17?

You or your parents will pay it. I've seen a $700 average child support payment on a 12 year old by his former sitter. She just waited until the statute of limitations ran out to file for retroactive support all the way back to the birth of the child.


How can the state of Washington force a father to pay child support for a child when there is no evidence that the child is alive?

If the child was deceased it would be in the papers unless it was foul play of some kind. If you suspect such thing you should contact the police. They would not just assume the child is dead when there are no evidence pointing towards it. If you pay child support you can also petition fro visitation and see for yourself.
