According to IRS rules, only the person who physically supported the child for more than 50% of the year can claim the child as a dependent. Financial support does not count. If the child lived with you for at least 183 out of 365 days during the tax year, you can claim him/her as a dependent. If the child stayed with you less than that, you cannot.

When a child is being kept by the grandparent is the grandparent's income used when calculating the father's child support payments?

The parents are responsible for child support, not the grandparents. If the grandmother has legal custody the child support payments should go directly to her via a court order. All states in the US have child support guidelines, based on income and other factors, that must be used to calculate what the non-custodial parent(s) must pay.

It should be noted that if the child lives with her grandparent that grandparent is already contributing to the child's support above and beyond the payments made by the parent(s). Child support payments rarely amount to enough to completely support the child.

When is child support considered late in ga?

In general, child support is late if it is not received by the due date.

When can you file for child support in Missouri do they take into consideration that the dad has paid child care for a year?

Yes, you will be required to fill out a form 14 which is a form of how much money is made, how much is spent, what portion of the week is the child(ren) with what parent, etc. So when filling out that form, make sure that it shows what the father has been paying. If you have receipts, I would also suggest keeping those in case the other party refutes the claim that child care is being provided, it is also a tax write off.

Can a mother be forced to take a paternity test if she does not want the child and wants to allow an adoption?

What are the steps to file against a veterans disability check for child support he has dodged child support for thirty years now he is collecting a disability check from the Veterans Administration?

I do not know the statutes...and it may be state to state difference. Once the child is over age 18, you have a whole different set of laws. It was up to the jurisdiction which ordered the child support in the first place. That state will have to file the action with the district court. If you gained any form of assistance during that time from the state, the state courts will determine on the cost of a court case.

On a personal basis of you suing for this, find yourself a good lawyer.

If a 16 years old boy have a child is he resposible to pay child support nyc?

Yes, but if he lacks income, the parents could be ordered to pay it based on an assumption of minimum wage. Further, he has no rights to the child until a court approves it. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must seek other means of establishing his paternity and that is done through paternity test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court and once established the father can request visitations, custody and set up child support for the child.

If you are behind in paying your child support will you be stopped trying to cross the Canadian border?

First you need to find out if you have a warrant. Get a friend who is in law enforcement or better would be someone who works in the court house and find out there. Reason is is that if you have an arrest warrant than, yes, you could be arrested when coming back into the U.S.

AnswerThe question is whether the Canadians are going to stop her from entering. Crossing now requires a passport and on the Canadian side they will swipe the passport. If person is a Canadian citizen bearing a Canadian passport I really doubt a US child support order would 'attach' - but with a US passport you never know.

When there is a question of back child support where is the burden of proof?

The burden of proof is on the payee (the one receiving payments). If a support order was filed - the payee contacts the state agency to "go after" the payor. The burden will then shift to the state as they are the keeper and overseer of all payment records. They can then garnish IRS tax refunds and issue additional child support payment amounts to repay the arrearage.
