A: As long as the child is living with the mother, she can ask for child support. If the father wants custody, then he should file immediately, but at the same time pay the mother for any months the child is not in his care.

A: Yes. As long as the child is in her custody, she can seek support. However, if she's unfit to parent, you should consider pursuing custody of the child.
