In MN, i have been separated from my wife for 4 years, but we have not yet finalized the divorce. She now has a 9 month old child that I am not the father of. However, I recieved notice in the mail that i am expected to pay child support for this child.

Yes, unless you are able to establish that you are not the father. I strongly suggest you contact an attorney to discuss your matter as there are strict time limitation in challenging paternity. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your matter - 651.270.6484.

More information would be needed to properly answer your question. For example, it would be important to know whether mother has parenting time at all during the summer. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss your issue #651.270.6484.
She has my 2 boys and about to move to Minnesota with me. when she starts work with me will she be garnished at all? the child support is from Kansas and she hasn't worked in years.

It depends on what the child support order states whether there is automatic holding of child support. In any event, child support orders, even from a different state, can be enforced in Minnesota. So, her check can certainly be garnish for child support orders from Kansas.
The father and his father coerced my daughter into sigtning a paper that says she will not move her son out of state. She is basically being held prisoner in Minnesota while he goes to college and her entire family is in Phoenix. He has never paid any child support and sees the child very rarely.... View More

It is difficult to give advice without reviewing the custody decree. Generally, the father should be paying something in child support. I really would set up a consultation with a family law attorney to discuss available options.
