== == == == == == Financial obligations of either parent depends upon the terms of the child support order. If there is not a court order then the parent cannot be forced to pay a specific amount nor other expenses until an order of support has been received. Yes, the noncustodial parent is OBLIGATED to pay child support, figured out by a program entered into a computer program, based on each parents net income, as well as time shared by each parent, with the child or children. Both parents are required to equally share the child care costs incurred, while the custodial parent works and also goes to school in every state that I know of. As well as, costs incrued for any medical costs for the child over what the insurance pays out. Of course you need a court order to enforce this, although every court that I am aware of, will uphold these terms.

There is a judgment agenst you and your ex husband you have no money coming in except child support from your exhusband can they take your child support and also would they take his money b4 mine?

Child support is not subject to garnishments. If your ex husband has a job, they will garnish his wages and can also garnish a tax refund check from the state or federal government. If you do not pay your half of the debt, and your ex is garnished for your portion as well as his, he can counter sue you for the portion that is your responsibility. A judge can change your child support order, and make it not payable until the garnishment is satisfied. Sounds like you need a job, and need to pay your bills.


In the state of Illinois does the father have to pay child support if he signs over all of his parental rights?

yes. the child has up till a certain age to pursue back child support. the child can use back child support to go to college or use it for other stuff. even if you gave up your rights. the money won't go to the mother , it will go to the child. if she was adopted by a future husband that married your ex wife, then that's a different story. one thing is different from the other in the courts eyes. the longer the mother goes with petition the better the matter is with you. if she waits till the child is 16 or 17 then she can't control the money if you have to pay it. it can go straight into a account in you child's name only. if the child gets married early or starts working, the matter can change again. once the child becomes a 18 yr old, a petition will have to be done by the child and not the mother.

Can I lose child support if I had an affair?

Child support is the other parents half of the expenses your child costs each month. You pay the other half. What you do in your private life, sleep with etc, can not change the fact that each parent have to pay for their child. He has an obligation to pay for his child just like you do so the child support goes to the one who has custody for the child. The court do not care about that you had an affair and will not let your child lose 50% of his/hers financial support because of it. Whether to pay or not is not up to the parents.
