You know of course with any moment on the site if you do have a divorce or child support question, its just a click away from asking. I love spending my days gathering information and helping people, and giving the most up to date information on divorce and child support. I also like to know that people do not mind asking questions about their divorce and child support questions. Its nice to me to have a site I can go to, help others and talk to people about any problems they may be having with divorce and child support issues, or if they just need to get something of their chest and then maybe get a divorce or child support question answered. Over the past few days I have gotten a little more back into some child support questions and also had my girlfriend sign up to ask and get her information while researching for her divorce. She is the one that asked if she could get alimony and child support in her divorce. But there is also other problems along the way for others, who have fathers who, well do not want to be fathers, and that's what this informational child support blog is about, it is for those incredible mothers that have been left alone, and a father claiming not to be the father. Here is some questions and then answers for paternity in child support cases. So lets dive in and give these incredible mothers some child support information.
If you have not been married and not fighting a divorce well you may be fighting over an ex with paternity for child support. So one of the questions I have gotten is that he is denying paternity and the mother is 100% sure he is the father, but he will not pay child support....what happens in this case is that you can get a court order, to establish paternity, and make him go for test. Now if comes back he is the father, he may not set up payments for back child support and child support for future.
Now this is a question and answer for fathers.....or fathers that have been paying for a child they feel may not be theirs...one beautiful for you for helping a family out, but also,establishing paternity is important. You can get paternity test simply at the hospital to establish wither you are the father.
Please feel free to ask any questions on your child support or divorce.
We discusses yesterday about alimony and child support after a divorce. I had a friend ask me if you can receive both in a divorce and of course you can, they are to separate things. I gave a recap on alimony and basic divorce information yesterday, so now lets take a look at some basic information on child support after a divorce.
Of course just like when you divorce, each state has different guidelines to divorce as it does child support and how they handle. The amount of child support does depend a lot on two things when the divorce is settled and child support payments are put into place. The amount of income BOTH parents have, and the number of children that are being paid for. I have also done a blog on how much percentage comes out for number of children, but a recap of information on child support for that may be a good idea.
Just like divorce and alimony, child support needs to be fair, this is something that is not being done to punish anyone in the divorce. Parents need to realize that child support is for the care of their child. Another reason that counseling after a divorce is so important for everyone in a family.
So lets take a closer look at what can affect the amount of child support after a divorce, what can make child support be higher. Child support can also be paid for longer, most child support stops when a child turns 18 years of age, but in some special cases even the ones I am fixing to list can have an affect on child support being paid longer after a divorce. Now remember, parents should want to help their children i there is special need cases and not expect one parent to take it all on. So lets take a look now at what can cause child support to be paid longer or a higher amount. So that one parent is not stuck with higher amount of care.
1. Child support can be paid longer and higher amount after a divorce if there is, special education needs for your child.
2. Child support can be paid longer and higher amount after a divorce if there is help needed in traveling expenses. This is usually just on the case for higher amount in child support and does not continue after the child is of age.
3. Child support can be paid longer and higher amount after a divorce if there is major medical expenses for your child.
These are just a few of the things that can make child support a higher set amount and to be paid for a longer amount of time, but again like I have said, a parent should want to take care of their children.
