How can my fiance and I get married without my wages getting involved with his child support bill?

i think it depends on the state you're in. in my state the support cannot be changed simply because someone remarries. when someone asks the court to modify the child support, here in my state, they only take into account the amount the father and mother make - not the "household" income. try calling a local law library for the specific rules in your state.

The easiest thing you can do is marry her/him. I mean s/he is your fiance... To legally immigrate without marriage is VERY difficult and VERY expensive. Cost starts out at $5,000 and can go much higher. Your best bet is to go talk to a immigration lawyer in your area. They usually provide free consultation.

Draft the motion and file it in the county where your child support order was originally filed (assuming no one's moved out of county), together with the appropriate coversheets (found at the AR judiciary homepage).  \n\nYou might be able to find some pre-printed legal forms at the pulaski county law library to get you started.

He needs to go to court and seek custody or he will have to pay the child support.  Buying diapers is not considered support by any court.  He doesn't have a say on how the money is spent unless the child is not being properly cared for.  If he doesn't pay the support he will have his wages garnished.  He can also go to jail.  Seems stupid to risk this because of petty jealousy.  This is a good reason why people should be married before having children.  It's a lot less trouble.

Since I don't know where you live I can only tell you what goes on here in the states.  First of all you should have made it a point to know all about the finances during your marraige.  YOU put yourself in the position of not knowing now and there really isn't much you can do about it since you don't know if he has any other accounts in his name or not.  All that you might be able to do is have your lawyer do a "discovery" on his finances (hopefully you know your estranged husband's social security number, if you don't then you're pretty much stuck).  Secondly most states no longer grant spousal support.  Of course they do grant child support but that is for the CHILDREN not for the ex spouse so your "allowance" will end, and you'll have to get a job.  If you live here in the states I suggest you stat looking for one.  Go to yur local county office and see what they can do for you.  If you don't live in the states I can't help you, because I can only give you advice based on U.S. divorce/custody laws.

If he is getting paid in euro's it will be a lot more difficult, but you could try contacting the US consulate for guidance (google for consulate contact info). If he is working for a US company and paid in dollars you should just contact the state Child Support Enforcement Agency that your support case was filed in and give them his current location and the name of the employer if you know it. They can do a lot with a little information and a lot of follow up (pressure) from you.

Contact the court that issues the order.  If you are broke, you can fill our a form claiming poverty (it called "in forma pauperis") and you can file your court papers for free.\n\nYou file a petition with the court requesting enforcement of the spousal support order.  You can go to court and the judge can take actions to enforce the spousal support order just like a child support order.  This included garnishment of wages and jail, if necessary.

That's a difficult thing to accomplish in court.  The judge frowns on that for sure.\n\nYou need to start with the Human Resources Department.  They can give you the phone number for Legal Aid.  You need an attorney.  I'm sure they have financial papers to fill out that account for every dime you make. How much is coming in and going out on bills.  And judges don't allow for credit card bills, accounts with Sears, Penneys, etc. The child comes first.  \n\nI've heard of people having their child support payments raised after attempting to get them lowered, so you need to be sure you are a poverty case before you go in.\n\nYou can't have a new boat, snowmobile, 4 wheeler, etc. And whatever you do, don't lie about anything...\n\nThere may be a certain percentage of your pay that has to go on child support.  Ask an attorney what the formula is for your state.  Good Luck!.....)(

Federal law requires every state to have a state agency available to enforce child support orders.  Usually this agency is a branch of the District Attorney's office.  \n\nFind out who does this in your state.  Call up, set an appointment, bring all of your paperwork (especially if the order was made in another state).  Bring the deadbeat's social security number, driver's license number, last known address, all names used, etc.\n\nThe state agency has direct access to the IRS database and can search the database using the social security number.   If he is employed or self-employed under that number, they will find out where he is working and how much he makes.  They can then swoop down and attach 50% of his wages.

Only a court can do this. You need a lawyer. \n\nI got a great-nephew no one in this family knew about until he was two. His maternal grandparents wanted to adopt him. If the father is of a decent sort (which my nephew is) and he is *game* to pay child support, it's easier to come to a friendly agreement (especially if the father has decent parents who will absolutely adore their grandchild).\n\nThe is the kind of thing best discussed by the family over coffee, and not in a courtroom.\n\nYour post, however, suggests you and the father have some serious ill-will between each other.Child visitation/custody and child-support issues are sometimes used as weapons in such disputes. If he is paying child support, and short of him being an unfit parent (hard to prove) you really don't have a leg to stand on. \n\nYour child should not become a weapon to use against his father. It will only warp him.

Sounds like your attorney isnt doing the job you pay for.  \n\nIs there a court order for support?  Is it paid thru the county support office where you live?  Both of these should be true.  If they arent fix it.  \n\nCan you provide proof he has not been paying legally obligated support?  If so, no judge in the country will fail to order him to make good.  Likewise, failure to do so over a certain period or amount will result in the court taking action.  They can take his drivers license, and worse even put him in jail.  \n\nNo matter he is self employed.  You can go by his tax returns and the court will order him to produce the documents.  \n\ntry going to legal aid where you live\n\nI paid my support religiously for 15 years and never missed a payment.

some of the answers have valid points, the one that you have not maid is if the children are truely yours, this can be tested, It may be difficult to think they are not yours. but you must be sure. as to visitation she must be willing to meet you half way, its the law. as to your inability to pay, you can request that the amounts be adjusted due to your change/loss of income. and third, On a personal note, I find it difficult to swallow that when it comes to children a woman can terminate that child before birth without the father having any legal right to choose to keep the child, yet the mother gets rewarded child support even after she starts another relationship, and can move away making the father and children suffer. the laws need to change. the men never count when it comes to children, the law should require that if the mother chooses to move out of the town where the couple resided together, she should be responsilbe for all cost involved in transportation for the child to visit the father or loose any monitary contribution from the father if she chose to move away.

The child's father is obligated, I recently got back into touch with my older son and his mother has told me she has not recieved any money, thouu I have been paying through the nose, can't get any kind of license(hunting, fishing, business, et c.), I cannot get a passport and have been screwed constantly. If you have been on state assistance, he is paying that. If not, you need to report to DSHS and let them know you are not getting help. Also whoever adopts your son gets total responsibilty! Will be responsible for thee child financially for the rest of his natural life, think hard about this. Further more, quit yer bitchin'! I have never once heard of a man say he's not getting child support. You panty droppers wanted equality, fcuken take it! You created that child, you chose the man, you either take the responsibilty or give him to his father, you CANNOT have it both ways!

Go here and register and do it on line.  If you can't find your case, call the county agency with the original child support order:\n\nhttps://www.humanservices.state.pa.us/CSWS/CSWS_controller.aspx?PageId=CSWS/member_login.ascx

If he is not willing to help pay, tell him to get out of YOUR house. Go see a lawyer and see what you can do to get the house in your name only. Obviously you are able to pay on your own because you have done it for 5 years.

If the support is not court ordered and the mother is not requesting support then legally he doesn't have to  pay anything. Morally however, and assuming he's a responsible father and parent, then he should be making it his business and priority to ensure that his child or children are provided for to the best of his financial ability.

NO...the US Supreme Court ruled several years ago that the prior assets and current income of a parent's spouse (In this case, you) cannot be presumed to be available for the purposes of child support or spousal support, even in states where all income is otherwise considered to be community property and all debts considered to be joint obligations...that means you are not legally on the hook for his kids and his ex wife can't try to get your house...in a nutshell.\nIf you two marry and he stops working or something, they can haul his tail to prison if they have cause to believe that he's willfully avoiding his obligation, but your paycheck cannot be considered in deciding or fulfilling his support order.\nYou will want to consult an attorney specialising in family law about specifics such as whether you should file your taxes jointly or seperately, how a jointly purchased home should be deeded and to draw up a prenuptual agreement about any inheritance you may recieve in the future and MAKE OUT A WILL....Both of you.\n(the Supreme Court ruling left some confusion about the distribution of assets aquired by one party but within the marriage)
