The theory behind it is that if you haven’t started paying support by the time they move to suspend your license, you’re never going to pay anyway so they may as well exact punishment in the form of yanking your license. You may be able to make an agreement with them to not suspend your... View More

You need to file a petition for dissolution of marriage in the circuit court for the county in which you reside. Support and custody will be dealt with after you file your petition.

The guidelines go quite high in calculating income but if the earnings exceed the top of the chart, the court can make the necessary computations and adjustments to properly calculate the appropriate amount.

No. Not unless that is the deal you negotiate. Even so, that will not negate his arrearage, again, unless that is something you negotiate.
Support at that time. My daughter is now 3. Can I get retroactive CS?
answered on Jul 16, 2022
Yes, as kind as you file for it before your daughter turns four. After age four, you will only be able to receive support from when you actually file with no retroactivity.
