Q: I am a custodial parent who pays child support for kids in my custody? Arrears they say! I was incarcerated! Help
Non custodial parent is deported. Also my two eldest live with my parents no court border or adoption, my mom collected cash aid and I have to pay back! Why? I told her I want my two eldest to come live with me and she refused I can take them they are legally still in my custody but I don't my kids love my parents! But can my mom do that ?
A: This is confusing. Are there support orders in place? Are there custody orders in place? If you have physical custody of the children for whom you pay support, you need to take steps to get that support order modified. You can also be forgiven for the arrears if the arrears were incurred during the period you were living with your children (that you were ordered to support). You don't provide enough information in this question. I recommend you contact a lawyer directly rather than getting advice from people here on Justia with this limited information.
