Q: Am I able to transfer child support from the county it was started in because my ex wife hasn't lived there for 3 years?
My ex wife established CS in Wayne county 4 years ago. A year later she moved and has continued to reside in Lorain county which is where I also live. Wayne county has refused my requests for a review since having my one year old daughter with my recent experience who also receives child support. She never informed the child support office that she ever moved in the first place or of her occupational changes. So I was wondering that since we both reside in Lorain county could I request to have the case transferred?
A: She should file a change of address in Wayne with CS and the court. Check CS and the court web sites for the forms to file. If Wayne CS is refusing to review because you don't live there, and if filing the change of address doesn't change it to Lorain, then file to change it over to Lorain.
