Child Support

I would imagine that it was filed with your county courts. I would try there and if that fails go to the attorney you used for the court order. The social services offices may have a copy and schools are often given a copy for the child's records. Employers too may have a copy if money was taken out of a pay check. One of these sources should produce it.

To sign away your parental rights for a child you haven't seen in a decade, you typically need to file a petition with the family court in your jurisdiction. This process often requires notifying the other parent or legal guardians, even if you don’t know their whereabouts, which may involve a publication notice. It's advisable to consult with a family law attorney to ensure you follow the correct legal procedures and understand the implications of relinquishing your rights.

It is calculated based on the needs of the child, the custodial parent's ability to provide for the child, income of both parents, custody agreements and other factors (such as which parent will be paying to maintain health insurance on the child). If you look online, you should be able to find a calculator for your state of residence that will give you a ballpark figure. All states have a formula established or court rules that determine the amount of child support to be paid.

The definition and parameters of neglect and child abandonment (a form of neglect) vary from state to state and the circumstances surrounding an alleged incident of such are taken into consideration when determining whether or not an act of neglect took place.

For instance, if the parent was hospitalized or incarcerated, it generally would not be considered willful abandonment. If the parent did it because they had no way to provide food, shelter, emotional and financial support for the child for that period of time, it may not be considered an act of neglect, depending on specifics. If they did it because they couldn't be bothered to care for their child and could provide no viable reason why it was done, it would be considered neglect/abandonment.

Ultimately, it would be an issue decided in court.

To identify the parents of a child, one can look for official documents such as birth certificates, which typically list the names of the biological parents. Additionally, legal documents like custody agreements or adoption records may provide this information. In some cases, genetic testing can confirm biological relationships. Social or family records, such as family trees, can also help in identifying parental connections.

In all states, the only upper limit is 55% of gross as set under federal law. The guidelines do have an maximum amount, but not a limit. After a certain level of income is achieved, the interpretation of the court is required based on a rebuttable presumption.

Under Indiana law, IC 31-35-1-12 (2)(a) once parental rights are terminated, all obligations of support are terminated at that time as well. You will ONLY have your rights terminated, however, where a court determinest that it is in the best interests of the child. You will however be required to pay the child support that was ordered before the termination. It only stops after parental rights are terminated, but does not mean you do not owe the back support.

It is considered very much in the state of California.

In Colorado, a parent may not sign over their parental rights unless there is another spouse available and willing to adopt the minor child. This means, if a father wants to sign away his rights to his child that the mother's new husband must be willing to officially adopt the child.

he think that you is a man if you can pay your bills. if you cant do that then you are not a man. if you got 12 different baby mamas then you aint no man. if you still live with your mama you aint no man. if you dont take care of your kids you aint no man. if you not paying child support you aint no man.

Yes, if you paid for child care, regardless of where the income comes from, you can claim the Child and Dependent Care Credit.

If she did so with a judge, she can still refile later, but not for retroactive. If it was not before a judge, than a mother can wait up to 23 years to file for up to 18 years of retroactive child support, depending on the state, and rehardless of any previous claim. see links below

Spouses are not responsible for their spouse's child(ren). However, to collect unpaid support, the State may place liens on real and personal property, including bank accounts, owned by the obligor, even though the spouse is a joint owner.

This depends on if the father has an income while he is incarcerated,such as income from a business that the father owns and that is still able to operate without him while he is in prison or if the father is eligible for a work release program from the prison or if the father is eligible for an inmate job in the prison..

If the father is incarcerated and is not eligible for any such programs and has no other means of income then the child support will continue to be added to his unpaid balance and will be waiting for him to begin paying when he is released..

if the mother terminates her rights can he collect child support from the mother if child lives with him?

You need to perform an online search for each jurisdiction and then compare the various aspects in each state. You can find the child support guidelines by using the state + child support guidelines to find pertinent information.

The court would be unlikely to reward the non-support of a child by taking custody from the custodial parent and granting custody to the delinquent parent. There must be a compelling reason for the court to make such a drastic change in the child's living arrangement. You should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options.

It goes directly to the state. The mother may get $50 a month from it, depending on amount ordered.

Any non-custodial parent may be ordered to pay child support regardless of immigration status or, for that matter, whether he's in the US in the first place.

i would not recommend that

Yes. If you have accumulated arrears (back support) even though youre paying support now, that back support is still owed. What happens is that the state where your case resides calculates what your regular support obligation is PLUS a certain dollar amount representing the back support for example if your current support is $100/week and they attach, say, $25 to help pay arrears, your weekly obligation would be $125 until the arrearage is satisfied.

So, just because you are paying now does not wipe out what you might have owed in back support, youll still have to pay it eventually.

If a 13 yrs old child wants to move out of mother home does the father still has to pay child support

yeah, of course they can.

yes ..... Child abuse should never happen and yes, anybody can -and should- go to jail for it. So if you are a victim of abuse or know someone who is, do not hesitate to report the facts to the police immediately.
