With no courts orders in place, the father has no legal right to have the child living with him. The mother has sole custody and control in all states, and he can still be obligated to pay support for this time period. He needs to immediately file a motion with the court to establish his rights and for at least temporary custody, pending a full hearing, before she gets wind of the fact that she can take the child away from him at any time. see links below.
No. The mother has the right to know where the child is when she's not in her possession. In fact, the court would require it. What if something happened to the father while the child was with him? It would not be in the child's best interest for the father to be able to keep his whereabouts secret from the mother when the child is with him. Now that's a good recipe to cause strife.

I suggest that you contact your town's/province's child support agency. When you get an interview with them, bring all the papers relating to your child support: birth certificates, acknowledgments of paternity, court orders, payment records, etc. Be polite but persistent. Good luck!
