Does a non custodial parent have to continue to pay child support if the child lives with the non custodial for a period of a year and the non custodial parent is almost 30 thousand dollars behind in?

The way it breaks down is for every month the child was with the custodial parent, that child had needs. those needs needed to be met and paid for by on of the parents, generally on a half and half basis. If the dues have been paid up until the point when the child moves into a non-custodial parents home, the laws become fuzzy, but still favor the custodial parent. Even if the child goes to live with the non-custodial parent while he/she still owes money for past due child support, he/she still must pay that as if it were a debt to a creditor. Even after the 18th birthday of the child, the "bill" still is a valid debt, and legal action may be taken if unpaid. I have known a man in his 70's paying past due child support on 3 of his children ages 40, 46, and 53.

Finincal support for 25 years old school?

Does a father have the right to visitation rights if the father pay child support with money orders without court order?

No, and he's not paying child support. He's giving gifts, since there's no order.

Answer

Child support and visitation are two different and separate issues. Both should be governed by court order if the parents cannot come to an agreement that is kind and considerate of the needs of the CHILDREN. Paying child support through the courts is the best since the parent who pays gets credited with the amount paid. This may not happen otherwise.

Who has full custody of a child born to an unmarried couple in Nevada?

Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in most states until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must establish his paternity by signing the birth certificate at the time of birth (waiving DNA testing rights) which must be done with mother's consent.

If he doesn't sign the birth certificate then he must seek another way to establish his paternity and that is done through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court. Once paternity is established in court, the father can request visitations or custody through the court. If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.

What is a delinquent support payment vs past due support?

New Mexico child abandonment laws?

The law defines child abandonment as : "a parent, guardian or custodian of the child , intentionally leaving or abandoning the child , under circumstances whereby the child may or does suffer neglect". "If child abandonment results in death or great bodily harm to the child, the crime is a second degree felony, punishable by nine years imprisonment If it does not result in death or great bodily harm, the crime is a misdemeanor. New Mexico is a state where if you abandon a child less than three months old at a hospital the parent may not be persecuted for abandonment. This is due to the "Safe Haven For Infants".

Is it possible that a DNA test could have been performed wrongly?

It's possible, but unlikely.

If someone 'could' be the father and the test says they are, then it is most likely to be right.

If the test says that they are not, then it might be possible that the test is wrong.

Yes, however this creates difficulties in the future, as commissions vary from year to year, necessitating the need for annual modifications in support rather than the standard 36 month auto review. This can become costly to both parents, and time consuming. an option is to settle on a designated percentage of the commission be paid at the time of receipt.
