The mother must file a motion for contempt for the father's failure to pay his court ordered child support. The court will address that issue before hearing testimony for a change of custody, which will require compelling evidence on the part of the mother.

If I have custody of my child and don't receive child support and I allow my child to go live with his father is he entitled to child support?

He may be. It will be determined by a court if he decides to take it up with the state. If you have custody, was there a stipulation regarding child support? If there was a divorce agreement it may state the stipulations regarding support and custody. If the custodial parent is giving up physical custody of the child to the previously non-custodial parent then child support may be changed.
