It's a difficult question to answer without knowing the specifics. The simple answer is YES, if your kids are being raised by their other parent and you have financial means and they do not.

If you have joint custody of your children do you have to pay child support while they spend the summer with you in NY?
This is an issue which should have been addressed in the original support agreement. If there is no stipulation as to how support should be administered when the children are with you. You are still obligated. You can however, have the order modified to read, that when you have physical custody the set payments at that particular time be used for the children's benefit.

Why didn't the court order child support if you have primary physical custody?
If you have primary physical custody you are entitled to support. How much support is figured in a formula based on how much money each of you makes and how many days (or overnights) each of you has time with the child. Depending on the state, if the child stays with the other parent over a certain set amount of time, then that parent is responsible to pay less child support. Most states are trying to push joint physical custody where the child spends 1/2 to 2/3 of the time with the primary caretaker and the rest with the other parent.

What do you about support when you are the non-custodial parent and the custodial parent wants to hand over the child to you?
They can't simply "give the child to you." You need to return to the court and have the custody order modified so you'll have legal custody. It will go easier if the current custodial parent consents to the modification. At that time the current support order should be terminated and you can request child support if you wish.
