Child Support

You have to file a consent order to terminate the income deduction order.

Social Security pays for the child until he or she is 18 years of age.

You seldom can get a whoot whoot without asking for one.

Single fathers have none until granted them by a court, which has to approve removing them.

if a judge agrees

If he can prove that he is the biological father of the child, he can seek custody or visitation rights, regardless of whether or not he is on the birth certificate or paying child support. In fact, if he is the biological father he can legally have his name added to the birth certificate.

However, if he has not been around for 16 years, it is unlikely that a judge will grant anything more than visitation rights, and the child is old enough to have a say in whether or not they want visits from their father.

I had the same problem. I want to court in California and filed an ex parte action to reinstate the California drivers license. I went before the Judge and told him that I could not work if I didn't have a drivers license and he removed the suspension. I did this all in "pro per" or without a lawyer. The price of the plane ticket and filing fee was all it cost. The family law ficilatator in the court will help you fill out the forms.

There's a lot of missing information here [so to speak]. I suspect the answer has to do with the fact that child support orders cannot be modified retroactively.

You need a modification. see links below

no, they are still applicable.

There is no defense to paying the support that accrued prior to the modification. Modifications are ordinarily granted because of a reduction in net income.

He's been out of work, as millions are, and his unemployment has run out. Meanwhile, he's just learned from me that he could have filed for a modification without the need to hire an attorney. That info is witheld from fathers.

Whether it's a drivers license or a professional license, the license is revoked or suspended until the past due amount including interest is paid, or the obligor and the State agree to a payment plan.

It would be nice, but they do not have to pay anything past high school and 18 years of age.

The suit for custody will be filed in the county where the child resides. Once the court makes a decision regarding physical and legal custody it will also issue child support and visitation orders. That court will continue to have jurisdiction over the case.

In the state of mi me and my ex had joint physical and joint legal he had her one week i had her the next. I had to pay child support because i made more money then the ex.

I think I understand your question, but it's not asked very clearly. It's a little confusing. If I'm answering this wrong, then you need to re-ask and be more specific. As in "Can the mother of my child keep me from seeing the child just because she doesn't like my new girlfriend, even though there is nothing in the visition schedule saying she has a right to make that call?" No, you cannot keep your child from visiting with their father just because you don't like his girlfriend. She would have to take you to court and prove to the judge that the girlfriend is a danger to the child, then the judge would have to say the girlfriend can not be around the child. Then if she found out the girlfriend was still there when the child is visiting you, she could do something about it. Other than that, she have no legal right to keep the child from you. In fact, you could take her to court for violating the terms of the visitation.

If you are the joint-owner of the account you have already have access to the money so there is no reason to levy it. If you are not the joint-owner then you can't levy the money in the account, only the money paid to him via his paycheck. The levy would cause his employer to divert some of the funds that it pays to him, before he receives it.

My advice would be don't! Go through the state so that you have good documentation and witnesses to protect you from non-payment claims.

Can the custodial parent ask for child support for her children past the age of 18 if the children are full time college students?

Probably not, unless there is an additional change in circumstance. Child support is generally based on a formula that takes into account things like income (or income earning potential), health insurance, child care and other expenses. The income of the new spouse is not one of the factors in this calculation. However, support of another minor child is, so if the custodial parent has another child in that marriage, that may affect the calculation.

You'll need to check the laws in your state but in most states the spouse's income is not factored in unless the custodial/non custodial parent is living solely off of his/her spouse's income.

The father has no right to supervise the mother's lifestyle, SSD or no.

No, although he should not allow the case to be closed when the child is underage, as it could be reopened later in another state, with a retroactive amount owing.

One reason would be if they had been legally separated and living apart at some point.

Having a child is irrelevant, because being pregnant/having a child does not emancipate a person. Florida requires that you be at least 16 in order to petition the court for emancipation.

No, as that is a separate commission from Welfare.

He has the same rights as any other father, the fact that he was married to someone else is irrelevant. But since you were not married he needs to establish paternity in court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support.
