Child Support

Such matters are best handled by a qualified attorney. In lieu of such, the interested party may contact the office or the clerk of the court where the original custodial order was issued for forms and filing procedure. Please be advised, court clerks cannot give legal advice or comment on an individual case unless it has already been settled and is a matter of public record.

Seniors can be cared for in the home. A successful caregiver is one who truly has the heart and willingness to help those in need. They do not provide care in search of recognition or money. A true caregiver provides care because they feel the need to help those less fortunate to make their days a bit brighter and manageable.

The basic duties of in-home caregivers are:

· Assist with Hygiene Management (bathing, grooming, dressing, skin care, etc.)

· Assist in transferring, repositioning, ambulating, etc.

· Meal planning and preparation

· Pick up or light housecleaning, laundry and linen changing

· Implement Instructions from Hospice

· Provide comfort and supervision

· Medication supervision and administration

· Assist with Physical Therapy or range of motion

· Run Errands (grocery shopping, pharmacy pick-up, doctor appointments, etc.)

If the parent or guardian provides more then half the support of a minor child the child can be claimed as a dependent on the head of household IRS filing. Please note, The SSI benefits cannot be used as a portion of the "half" amount.

If you legally adopted the child, you would terminate your parental rights the same way you would with a biological child. Get a lawyer and go to court.

However, keep in mind that if you legally adopted the child, terminating your parental rights does not terminate your legal relationship with the child. According to the law, you are the child's father and you will be required to pay child support. Terminating your parental rights will only relinquish your custody rights and your ability to make decisions on behalf of the child.

Any child support arrears must be paid unless, of course, the person to whom the funds are owed decides not to pursue the case.

Contact the local police and request they accompany the guardian to the residence where the child is located. This is not an ideal solution, however a court appointed guardian is responsible for the child and legally responsible to abide by the court's guardian mandates. The police will need to see a copy of the guardianship award or some proof of the person's legal guardianship status.

No. Child support ends at the age of 18 in California. Once an individual turns 18, they have reached what is known as the age of majority, and are then considered adults.

Regardless of whether the son/daughter is still a dependent of the former legal guardian, child support does not apply.

The good news is that through either grants or through federally funded loans, the student should be able to afford any public University within the state of California regardless of income.

Each and every child brought into this world deserves, at a minimum, monetary support. He or she is human being and requires food, clothing and shelter. If you are the parent of this child, your behavior and choices created the child and the consequences fo that behavior is that you support the child. It would be best for the child if you took some interest and showed some love, but if you are not capable aat least keep the child at a survival level.

Generally, the obligation ends when the child reaches 18 years of age or the child graduates from high school, whichever occurs later. A child will also automatically be ineligible for child support if that child marries, or is removed from disability status by a court order. see link

If interest is accruing that means there must be arrears. The interest will stop accruing when the arrears are paid off.

Yes.

No, once the child reaches the age of 18, child support is finished except in special cases such as the child has physical symptoms that would refrain him/her from living a normal life like others.

It varies by state.

Example: In NY, you must pay child support until the child is 21 (unless the child becomes emancipated...and that's usually hard to prove anyway).

In Texas, child support is paid until the child is 18.

In Pennsylvania, you also pay until the child is 18 UNLESS they are a full time student in college (in which case you have to pay until they're 21).

I have always tried to do my best to support my children financially ( and yes, i do pay child support). And I will ALWAYS try to help them regardless of what age they are.

However, for the state to have a law that a parent should pay until the child is 21....i think that is B.S.!!!

They can go to college, go in the military, get a job, smoke, get a tattoo, vote, have sex....all these things but they still make a parent pay child support until 21?? I don't agree with it.

It is impossible to provide a number for this as laws vary depending on the country, state or province in which the case is being handled. Taken into consideration will also be the income of the father, the mother and the number of children requiring support.

It depends on the type of joint custody. Custody is broken down into two subcategories- legal and physical. Legal custody is the ability to make decisions concerning the child and to act on the child's behalf. Physical custody is who the child lives with. Typically unless the child spends exactly 50 percent of the time with each parent, one parent is considered to have primary custody and the other parent to have secondary custody or visitation rights. Child support is based on who has primary physical custody, and that parent is typically awarded child support from the parent who has the child less since having the child more usually means that you provide for more of their needs as well.

If he's the father, yes. If you're old enough to make 'em, you're old enough to pay for 'em.

I'd Say Yes But I'm Not Absolutely Sure About It

It's not impossible but it is highly unlikely that the court would address such an issue. The premise being that the adult child waited far too long to pursue litigation. The majority of US states do have statute of limitations pertaining to the recovery of child support arreages. For states that do not have an SOL, arrearage recovery is usually only applicable when money is owed to the state due to the child/children having received public assistance.

In the US visit the family court where you live and check the index of names to see if there is a case file under your father's name. If you suspect he has a child in another jurisdiction then you must check the family court records in that jurisdiction.

yes

But note that a large percentage of these liens turn out to be due to accounting errors by the state.

No. You can file a petition for child support at the local family court. Some courts have advocates that can assist you. Once a child support order has been entered by a judge your state's child support enforcement agency will help you collect.

No. If the state is supporting the mother and child the mother has no right to free the father from his responsibility to support his own children. The state will pursue him for child support.

Termination of parental rights is effective only after a court approves it. If all you did was sign a document relinquishing parental rights, but no court ever approved termination of parental rights, you could still be required to pay child support.
