I also pay for my older daughter’s college tuition. Can I use this for consideration to reduce it more?
You can't use paying college as a way to reduce child support. Child support is based on your income
I am the custodial parent. Her father is the non-custodial parent in the court order. He is always vague about what time he will arrive, often sends other people (who are not listed on the custodial agreement as a designated person) to pick her up instead. He is also always late to pick her up and... Read more »

She was arrested and indicted for murder and a few other charges. I now have my son. What happens to my child support arrears?
If your ex is on bond one way to handle the arrears would be she does not pay you child support until. She gets credit for your arrears. If the arrears us owed for Medicaid you still will have to pay that portion
Obviously, I do not have the money to pay this off. Getting a loan isn't possible due to my horrendous credit score. Holding a job has been very difficult for me(no excuse, I know). I currently have a job, but it is low paying($10 per hour). I don't want to go to prison.
They’re trying to see if I’m being abused (I am not) I already talked to them today and she said she’d need to talk to do follow ups randomly. I was wondering if the fifth amendment applies to me and what my rights are when it comes to talking to the case worker.
Is he legally obligated to pay back payments
Contact the Attorney General and they may be able to get a wage withholding . You can't file a Motion to Enforce but there are ways to try to get the back child support
My girlfriends father doesn’t want my child to have my last name and doesn’t want me to be on the birth certificate can he decide that?
The judge will decide if there is a dispute. The child usually have the dad's last name
What should I do? And what would happen if I don't follow through?
You don't need his permission if you have a court order. Put him on the birth certificate .
What can I do to get him ok to go. Dad has not paid child support in two years.
If there is a court order unless you get the fathers permission you cant let your son move, If the father is not seeing your son that may be a different story, If he is not paying child support but seeing your son file a Motion for contempt.

AG is telling me come April the child support will end even though my daughter is only 12, because they only have a temp order in file. It seems my ex attorney didn’t finalize the final order after we went to court due to a past due invoice. What are my options to get them finalized?
Hire a lawyer to assess where the case is procedurally, determine next steps for finalization and get a signed final order.
To let me see him. What immediate recourse do I have to see him until this is final? She states that until I agree to all her financial terms I will not see my son.
Retain a lawyer and get a temporary order in place,
I have been bullied into this arrangement and I'm still actively custodial parent. They had money for an attorney and the father signed a waiver.
