If I can collect on some of the delinquent monies owed. If so what do I need to file? Also I dont feel DHR is really on my side. NCP is lying about his income I have shown them where he has spent 70 thousand dollars in 2 years buying property but only claims 18 thousand a year.

A: You can file a petition to modify support to include an additional amount for arrears. There is a "do it yourself" petition available from the Alabama Office of Administrative Courts.
