It depends on what State you live in. The problem with getting back child support from your child's father is the courts take so darn long. There is such a long waiting list. I know this is a difficult time for you, but in all honesty if you have the chance and the help it's best you take full custody of your child after you find a job and get someone to look after your child during working hours and make yourself more independent. There are many single parents who find someone they are in love with, get married and have a happy ready-made family. Good luck Marcy The SOL is determined by the state where the support order was received or the state where the non-custodial parent resides whichever is the longest. If however the support payments were made through state social services the state retains jurisdictional rights for recovering the money owed.
