What a chump! He won’t go TOO far from his daughter and you probably wouldn’t be criticized if you published the Summons in a newspaper where you live. His daughter might have some idea where her father is too. You might also be able to get the court to waive your filing fees. Go down to the... Read more »

Nope, you're not and you can be a "dick" and not reimburse her one dime. But why wouldn't you want to help your ex provide cell phones to your kids? This is a situation that will come up over and over again till the kids graduate, so why be a stingy, hard ass? That's... Read more »

If you and he had no previous custody order in place, then strictly speaking, he is NOTHING but a sperm donor. Simply by having his name on the birth certificate gives him NOTHING but obligations to pay child support. If he ever wanted to become the "father" of this 6 yr. old son, he... Read more »
We are currently getting a divorce.
My legal opinion is that a 1-time gift money left by your brother's will, insurance or trust or is not "income." Child Support and Spousal Support are based on "gross monthly income."
My daughter is 2 years old. We bought the house 2 months after marriage.
In Idaho, irreconcilable differences gets the job done without the drama of proving guilt, which it sounds like you weren't there as the act was happening, so you can't prove guilt anyway. So, you CAN prove that you two no longer get along and that you want a divorce. ThE THING that... Read more »

Child support and custody are thE two issues in any divorce. If the Court asked you, "maam, what is your monthly income?" What would you say? Are you treating the "settlement money" like an annuity? I.e., taking a monthly sum every month? The Court will want to so a CS... Read more »

Are there children involved? That answer would dictate where to file anything. If there are NO children between them then just file in Idaho. Idaho only requires the Plaintiff's residence to be in Idaho for at least 6 weeks prior to the filing.

It will depend on the language in your decree of divorce. If the decree of divorce gives the property to him outright then he would have the right to remodel the home because it is now his property. If he is required to refinance the home and clear your name off the property, he probably should... Read more »
With a few nuances, the rule is that if the divorce decree is accepted by a recognized government, the U.S. agencies will recognize it for purposes of immigration, K-1 in your case.
