FL law states that continued residing in a home for a period of 30 days or signing a rental aggrement or lease and residing in said building for 5 days establishes residency.   Can mom-in-law toss him probly....can she refuse to let him back in you bet

Well it seems you've made a mistake. Tsk. Just divorce him. And Hell no can he reapply for residency. Heck if all of them started thinking like that, then people would just be getting married just to obtain legal status.

If your cousin's country has divorce without him having to give his consent then she can divorce him even if he does not want it. The US recognizes the divorce. It always gets me when people try to argue they do not want to allow a divorce. Why would anyone want to force another to stay with them if they do not want to? I certainly would not want to be with someone who did not want me. Good luck to your cousin!\n=^_^=

My husband is a deputy sheriff in a Florida county and this is what he said:  The person who is in possession of the drugs will be the one arrested.  However if the person that has possession of the drugs denies it being his and if "you" are the registered owner of the vehicle then both of you will be arrested.  At that point it would be up to the courts to sort out.  He says it happens quite a bit.  Usually one cops to it after they are both arrested.  He said that police aren't inclined to believe either one.  So if no one admits..They both go!

Just go. Let him be the one to do the legal thing. My husband's ex-wife did it (new husband in military) and they moved to Hawaii (we live in Louisiana). We have not seen my husband's daughter in almost 3 years because they transferred again and we've no idea where they are.

She can say it, but you can contest the decision if you can prove special circumstances in regards to who is named on the lease.  If it is in your name, she is wrong.  If it is in both your names, you need to show just cause for remaining as the primary resident/leasee.  If there are children involved that is one reason.  If utilities are in your name, that is another reason.  If you have no way of moving your belongings out I believe it must be paid for by the department who is telling you to move.  You need to find a legal aid society that can assist you at low or no cost.  If you were the victim of a violent crime, then they should assist you with a restraining order against him.  This is most likely why you are being asked to move...the restraining order is in the works & the P.O. wants to get you out before it is issued.  I don't know, it sounds biased, but I don't know all the facts.  Hope this gives you some ideas.

Yes you can, but it is a big pain! You will have to fill out lots of paperwork. Contact your (his?) county sherrif.

I think you should talk to the local authorities and tell them what's going on. He sounds abusive; if nothing else controlling. You may even be able to get an interpreter, if necessary, depending on your location. They will likely direct to to your local social services office. They can tell you if you need to and are able to file a protective order (i.e. restraining order).\nIt certainly doesn't sound as if you or your Mother have done anything illegal, and if he is your step father and a U.S citizen, your Mother probably went through INS for a permanent residence card (meaning she's here legally). I hope you two are able to work it out.

It is the mother's parental right to make any new boyfriend's life hell.  Now, what age were you when you signed it?  If you were under age, then technically no, it can't be legal.  I don't know the age at which she/you are considered adults in your own community.  When she turns 18, will she be living at home or move out?  If she lives at home, mom's/dad's house rules apply.  OR, maybe certain terms can be negotiated with her parents.  Good Luck!

I believe if your parents have joint custodial rights you can choose what parent you want to live with. To be certain call your dad's attorney and he can tell you for certain. If your dad only has visitation you can't move in with him without a court order. It also sounds like if that was the case you have a compelling argument that you don't like your moms boyfriend. Call your dads lawyer, ask him the custody arrangement and good luck! Best wishes!

In order to claim Head of Household when you are not married, you need to have a related dependent whom lives with you for at least 6 months and you pay for over 1/2 the costs of the home during that time.  It could be an uncle, aunt, son, daughter, brother, sister, etc., but not a cousin.  They basically need to be related by blood.  So, the wife of your mother's brother doesn't count.  Like I said, they also need to be your dependent.  Now, if they are your parent, there is an exception where they don't need to live with you.  As long as they are your dependent and you pay for at least 1/2 the costs of wherever they are living (apartment, retirement home, etc.) for the ENTIRE year, you can file as head of household.\n\nIf you are married, the rules all change.  Since you said you were not married, I won't go into those rules here.\n\nFiling as Single is not so bad.\n\nBy the way, basically if you have no credits, dependents, or other income, and you use the standard deduction, and you only work one job at a time (you don't have a 2nd job), you would do well claiming Single 1 on your W-4.  If you want, you can use the attached IRS calculator (given to me by SteveF) to figure out the optimum withholding allowance on your W-4.\n\nCan you claim your boyfriend as a dependent?  You have to live with him all year AND he needs to have less than $3,300 of income AND you must support over 1/2 of his living expenses.  If he earns over $3,300, all bets are off.  If you could claim him, could you use him for Head of Household?  No.  Why?  He is not related to you.  For verification, please see Publication 17 (link below).

This is a very confusing subject and the laws have recently changed.  I just taught a tax course and we went over this in excruciating detail.  I won't go into all the permutations on who can claim whom.  Instead, I'll stick with your situation.\n\nAssumptions:\n\n1) Aside from you and your boyfriend (whom I assume is not the father of your children), there are no other adults living in the household who are related to either you or the children.\n\n2) Your children lived with you for at least 6 months, but did not live with any other relatives for at least 6 months.\n\n3) You earned less than $3,300 (probably nothing, right?).\n\n4) Your boyfriend paid for over half of your living costs including rent (or the fair value of rent if he owns his home), food eaten in the home, clothing, utilities, and college expenses!\n\n5) You and your children all lived with your boyfriend for the entire year.\n\n6) Your boyfriend paid for over half of the cost of living for each and every kid.\n\nIf all of these are true, your boyfriend will be able to claim all 3 of you as dependents for 2006.  These type of dependents are called "qualifying relatives".  Don't let the term "relative" throw you.  Anyone who lives the whole year with someone can (assuming other things are true) be claimed by them.\n\nSince your children are his "qualifying relatives" and not "qualifying children", your boyfriend will NOT be able to use them to take advantage of the Child Tax Credit, Additional Child Tax Credit, Child Care Credit (daycare), nor Earned Income Credit (EIC).  In addition, regardless what you may have heard, neither you nor your kids allow your boyfriend to file as Head of Household.  Anyone who is NOT related to the taxpayer can NOT qualify them for Head of Household.\n\nNow, if you happen to get married by December 31st, you will both file as Married Filing Jointly, you will be able to claim all the credits, you will get a higher standard deduction, and you will be able to write off college tuition and fees.

to be honest w/ you. the best thing to do is just move away and live some where else due to his threats. he maybe trying to scare you. but you can never be sure. as far as his last name. you can use yours. but be warned if you take him to court over child support. the judge may order the name changed to his if the father ask for it.but as far as his family there. you have the right to say who is allowed in there. you don't have to allow his family there if you don't want them there.

I don't know every state law but, I know that in most states, if the mother/father can prove that she has a home, stable income , and is competent enough to care for the child. She will be the first choice. If she isn't, family will be the next choice. You can pick a legal guardian but, any choice can be challanged in court.

Not without knowing what state you're talking about.\n\nIn general, if both parents have legal custody, both have to agree or go to court or arbitration. Otherwise, the parent with legal custody determines it.

You can only petition family members.  If you were a citizen you can get him a fiance visa right away.
