Do you pay taxes on child support if you have a high income bracket?

No

Child support payments are neither deductible by the payer nor taxable to the payee.

However, alimony, separate maintenance, and similar payments from your spouse or former spouse are taxable to you in the year received:

What happens if child support money is not used on the child does the parent go to jail?

No they do not go to jail. Remember that child support also helps pay for housing, utilities, gas to go places as well as for items for the child. Like any budget, toys and new clothes are wants not needs. As a non-custodial parent, you should not consider that child support is enough; it doesn't hurt to occasionally take the child out for a set of clothes, a jacket or new shoes.

Time frame from seeking back child support?

Up to age 18 on a new claim even when the man never knew the child existed.

Do you have to pay child support if both parties agree not to?

The courts would have to approve any such arrangement. This is because, strictly speaking, it is the child's money.

Who is the great child and dire mother?

The Dire Mother is the ghost of Margaret Shelburne, who was an attraction in a carnival due to her being only three feet tall. She was raped by the "Tall Man," another carnival freak. Her son Harold (the Great Child) was born as a result of that rape; he eventually weighed over 300 pounds (136 kg). Harold, spoiled, was raised as his mother's protector and kept a child-like mindset, to the point that he wore diapers his entire life. One day some of the carnival freaks decided to play a little practical joke on Harold, and kidnapped his mother. Enraged, he set out to look for her, but when he caught up with the culprits, he found that his mother had accidentally suffocated to death in the bag that she was kept in. Harold killed the kidnappers with an ax, keeping their remains and displaying them for paying customers. Later, when the owner of the carnival found out what Harold had done, he ordered a mob of people to tear Harold apart. Their ghosts are always together, and Harold still wields the ax and wears a bib stained with food that his mother has spoon-fed to him. An alternate version of the story is told in the DVD commentary. It was said that his death was caused by him rolling over on her in sleep and him suffocating her, then him starving to death.

Can a man deny to DNA testing of a child?

Generally, Yes. You can be forced.

If you are denying paternity, and the mother is claiming that you are the father, the proper legal way to resolve the issue is to take a paternity test. You can be forced to do this.

Refusing to take the test looks bad, as if you knew for certain that you were not the father you'd be quite willing to take the test - it wouldn't matter to you.

Can mother file a claim for past child support when she got a motion to suspend order and kids are in thirties now against fathers estate in Florida?

She can file a claim against the estate. There is no statute of limitations on collecting past-due child support.

No, as she has no legitimate claim of this as child support was suspended by court order. The problem here is the Probate court will not know this, so you need to present them with a current copy of the order. Go to the Clerk of the Court and request a copy be made of the order, with their certification that it has not been changed. What she is attempting could be considered fraud.

Why do some mothers not allow there child to have an mmr vaccionation?

1) religious objections (a belief that God or scripture prohibits vaccinations); 2) fear that such injections cause long-term problems such as retardation or autism. But these fears are unfounded.

How do you enforce a child support order in Maryland if the non custodial parent is being paid off the books?

You need to subpoena the individual who is paying the Father, or if there are more than one employee being paid in this manner, subpoena as many as you can afford to the support hearing. Under oath most people will not lie to a Court, there are too many problems with the State and IRS, for them to do so. At any rate, under oath they may be questioned about the Father's earnings, under the table or not. If he does hard work, paints houses or anything done as a contract worker and is not filing a tax return, you will need to subpoena the individuals who are paying the Father. It is a lot of work but, first, the Department of Revenue in most States will not go to these length's to collect support, and I say most, and it will cost you a small island for an attorney to do the leg work. Become your own detective service, ask trusted friends and relatives to help and get your child(ren) what they deserve.

In California can a person receive child support if they have 50 50 custody?

Child support and custody are two different and only distantly related things. If there's a significant earnings disparity between the parents, it's very likely that a court could award child support to the lower income parent in a shared custody situation.

If there was never a custody hering who has custody of the child?

Ex husband has been laid off and is late with child support and alimony is there anything you CAN DO?

Go to court and request a temporary reduction order. With over 80% of layoffs being men, and six men for every available job, this is becoming common. Considering punitive action shows a lack og humanity and consideration for the problems face by the other parent. Perhaps you might consider moving him back in to share expenses.

How do i receive child support from both parents?

Child support is not paid to the child. It would be payable to the person who currently has legal custody of the child or to the State if the State has custody.

Does the non-custodial parent need to have insurance on the child when paying child support in Texas?

Yes, if it is so ordered in the child support agreement. If the parent loses their insurance and the custodial parent has the ability to insure the child - it will be possible for the state to order the custodial parent to do so. This may change the amount of support the non custodial parent pays - it is entirely up to the whim of the courts.
