Looks like she is making you take her to court to get parenting time.
who gets the money? the state or the custodial parent? The state currently shows the debt owing to them

To either the state or custodial parent or partially to both.
The child support division at the courthouse should have the answer.

There is no such thing as a father washing his hands of his child.
Adoption is an exception.

You may be able to file a contempt case against him.

Obviously, somewhere there is order to do with you paying child support.
If a person falls behind in child support the court can order the Secretary of State to revoke the DL.
You need to get to the bottom of where this is coming from.

Usually, when a new order is entered, it incorporates whatever is carried over from before.
Her and the kids live with me because she has limited funds. They have been separated for five years, he has never paid child support and has a two yr old child by another woman. Can my daughter get a divorce pro bono
answered on Jul 10, 2017
Are you asking if your daughter can get a pro bono attorney? She might be able too. I think you can contact the Chicago Bar Association or the Cook County Clerk's office for a list of organizations that do pro bono work.

It could be twins.
There may be a still birth.
Only she knows who the father is and sometimes even she doesn't know.
The piece of paper is just a piece of paper.
The judge may approve cars as advance payment of some future child support.
We were never married but I do pay child support that we agreed on out of court

When the police are called, it could go either way.
Why not go to court and have it settled.
