Cause hes been working & I’ve been in school. He’s just worried about purchasing drugs, liquor & a car.

Your question was not finished. But child support is not just dependent on having an equal amount of time with the child. It is also dependent upon whether or not u have equal incomes.
We have a great relationship. She says she doesn’t want any money at all from me except the amount we originally agreed on. Aside from that, I continue to buy him whatever he may need, he’s with me 3-4 days out of the week, and he’s on my insurance. Doesn’t want to fight me over anything.... View More

If u r equally spending time with the cjild and your incomes ate roughly equal, u may be able to do that.
and because I supported shared parenting. This gave him more overnights than me but I didn’t make an issue of it because I knew seeing us both regularly was best.

My daughter is 5 years old and has only seen her biological father a handful of times.

No legal options for your "son" if you are not on his birth certificate, unless she does not contest your action. You should file something now and get it all straightened out.

She is right.
SSI can't be used to pay child support
SSI is based on need.
We live together and don’t plan on leaving each other at all. Will they force me to pay child support
answered on Nov 4, 2017
They can't force you to do anything.
They are offering you a chance to acknowledge paternity and have your name placed on the birth certificate.

What are the circumstances.
Did she send the child to Florida to be with her sister for the winter.

Don't they know. Don't they care.
Can I calm that back child support
answered on Oct 24, 2017
If there was a support order and he didn't pay, then the back amount belongs to the mother.
She can collect.
There is no time limit.
The child support does not belong to the child.
The Mothers husband paid support because he took him as his.

Looks like in the divorce it was found that the husband was the father and he paid support.
There would have to be another court order to make someone else the father.
He never had interest in meeting her.
answered on Oct 20, 2017
Nothing gets done unless you file a paternity case first.
Once he is determined to be the father, child support will follow.
Im in the state of illinois
Would i just go to my court house here and would she have to come to my court ?
answered on Oct 17, 2017
The question of which court has jurisdiction is very complicated.
The first question is where you can file the paternity case.
Usually it's the mother filing paternity against the father and she can do it in Illinois even if he lives in another state as long as he got her... View More
I started getting smaller checks and realized they were charging me child support when I don't have kids
answered on Oct 16, 2017
Seems like a mistake.
Find out who sent the notice to your employer to withhold for child support.

Yes, if you file here before you leave. You must have lived in IL for 90 days prior to filing, and you must be willing to come back here for your court date.
answered on Oct 14, 2017
You are free to hire any lawyer you wish but he or she must be authorized to practice law in Illinois.
