can I get child support after my son's father is deported back to El Salvador?

Nope. Especially if he is El Salvador. Salvadorean laws do not allow cross border funds transfer from El Salvador to the US.\nPlus and more imporantly, if he is El Salvador, how do you expect for im to pay child support ???? He obviously travelled and entered the US illegaly to get a job...

You have to call Barabdos embassy officially with your situation and to ask them to tell him about your kid.\nAt least he sould take his responsibility toward his kid ...

I went through the Attorney General's office online for my state, filled out the paperwork and had a hearing in 3 months!  The child support order went into effect the 1st of the next month.  It went really fast.  I think you can find some or all of those forms on the attorney general website for your state.  The information sheet just gives all parties names (including children), addresses, date of birth, social security number, drivers license no., and employers for you and him.  There are websites online where you can buy the forms really cheap.  Try www.findlaw.com and see if they have it.

WOW you stepped in it this time. She is illegal, get her deported and take out an order that stops her from taking your child (an American citizen) you can do that I've seen it done in Virginia. I forget what it is called but if your lawyer doesn't know what to file ask him to ask another lawyer maybe one that has been around a while.

I'm sorry to hear your story, I think I can guide you at least with the first part of your problem.  Since you are leaving in the States you should find the closest Guatemalan consulate and ask for their help. They might help you in getting your birth certificate and maybe in copies of your adoption papers.  I hope you find a solution to your problem.

If he is the biological father of your kids then get the miserable SOB back into court and apply for  child support and make sure you get it backdated too.

No.  But given the fact the the Federal Government is his employer, they probably will grant a continuance.  \n\nIf he needs representation at a hearing (to present evidence of some sort) you'll need to hire a lawyer or get a lawyer to do some pro-bono work.  You might be able to get some assistance through a "Father's Rights" group.  I also think the military might have a program to offer some sort of legal assistance --especially during wartimes.

Looking for that ex that's behind in child-support?\n\nIf you apply for public aid in your state, THEY will find him.

Sorry to here about that.  I am a Canadian and married to an American woman for over 8 years.  Still love her and not abusive.  As far as I know, he can be deported if all he has is a green card.  That is not citizenship in this country or even in Canada.  It permits you to work, etc. here but it does not protect you from exportation.  Your daughter or you signed a promise to support order for however many years.  I think it's 10.  You may not want to make him too upset till you find out more on that one as you or her may be responsible for supporting him.  He is eligible for citizenship at this point and, if nothing is done (ie. criminal charges for abuse, etc.) soon, it will be too late.  If your grandchild was born in the US, that child is a US citizen and cannot be taken from the country without a court order or permission.  Hope this bit helps.

You need to go through the courts.  Have a child support order made by the courts, with an income deduction order, so that the money is just taken from his check and deposited into your account (no more bounced check worrries).  I went through what you are going through for years until I finally went to the courts.  By this point my ex was $14000 in the hole but had purchased a new car, enrolled in college for his masters degree, and was living great.  But whenever I questioned him about it, he would tell me how hard he was struggling and that he just couldn't do any better.  I, however, was living on a prayer and wish, maxing out credit card for grocery and clothing for my son.  And wondering if I would ever be able to get out of the hole he'd made.   \n\n\nIt took 10 months for the courts to straighten everything out.  I requested that I keep my son's insurance on my policy because my exhusband was very unstable and changed jobs a lot.  They had no problems with that.  They garnished his income tax refund for the next 3 years and made it very clear to him that his child was first in his life, not his new apartment  or car or school. \n\nHe pays the very least a non-custodial parent can pay.  I was not trying to break him, I just wanted my son to have the benefit of both parent's income.  Which I think is his right.  \n\nThink of it as fighting for your children.  You would never let anyone else take anything from them or cheat them.  Don't let their father.  If they lived with him, he wouldn't have a choice about taking care of them.  He shouldn't just because ya'll aren't together.  \n\nYou don't need a lawyer.  Just go to your local office for Child support enforcement.  If you don't know where it is, search child support and your state's name.  \n\nAlso, think about life insurance policy -- child support orders normally require both parent carry one because you need that assurance in the event of an untimely death.  \n\n\nGood Luck!!

The child support fund is not fixed. It can be determined based on the ability of your estranged husband to provide the amount. \n\nHowever, the amount or percentage can be established by the Family Court. Don't depend too much on that fund. Even if the court will issue the order, the father might look for other ways NOT to give that support.\n\nWhat can be sure here is that official sanctions can be imposed on the father if he fails to follow the order of the court or to provide what he has promised you or what you have agreed upon.

Yep!  My sister had it done to her ex.  He never paid for their now 13 year old son.  They took back support, current support out of his disability checks, and also gave her his entire income tax refund for the year.

Does his biological father ever see or financially support him?  If not, you don't even have to ask him to sign away his rights.  In most states, if a parent does not attempt to contact a child for two years, the custodial parent can petition the courts to rescind the absent parent's rights.  If this is the case where you are (he has not contacted said child) I would jump on the opportunity to have your partner legally adopt him, as long as that is what he wants as well.  Every kid needs two parents to lvoe and support him.  It sounds like you got very lucky in finding someone who would love you as well as your son.  I hope all works out for you.

Barbara is right. You need to file in the county where the child resides (and has resided for at least 6 months). And, you can only collect child support that dates back to the date you originally filed for support.\n\nYou can pick up the paperwork at your local Family Court office or you can request assistance from D.S.S. They will help you even if you don't qualify for other services.

I think you are stuck.  Your rights as a mother are no stronger than his rights as a father.  You both have rights as parents, and that means that neither of you can pick up the child and move out of state without the permission of the other.  Would you like it if he decided to move to California with your son but not you?

The answer is not a straight yes or no.  More information here is needed.  What state do you live in?  Do you currently have a child support order that he has violated?\n\nLet's take California for instance.  If you do not have a child support order already in place, then you and your daughter are screwed.  Constitutionally, the California courts are without authority to order back support which pre-dates your filing of a motion for support.  The court only has jurisdiction to order support from the date you file the motion forward.\n\nIf you do have a current child support order that he has not been paying then there are many ways to enforce the back support.  It does not vanish when your daughter turns 18.  He owes it all plus interest at 10% per year.  The best way to enforce is it to obtain a wage garnishment order from the superior court.  In addition, contact your local District Attorneys' office.  People who skip out on child support are akin to murderers in the eyes of the law.  It is serious business.\n\nFeel free to contact me through this service if you'd like to discuss the matter.

If they arent a citizen of the US, from what I gather they can come back.  But if you owe and are a citizen, you cant leave the country.  They will make you pay it all the way up to current before releasing your drivers license, passports and such.\n\nBest advice would be for him to start to pay on it, to make an effort to take care of his kids.
