My childs father doesn't want to pay me child support because of the stimulus: Advice?

Just let the courts know

Tell him you’re not getting the stimulus or you’ve never received it. Smh. Why would you even consider telling him and he’s being a petty little bitch

Let the court know

Don’t let him get away with that!!

Absolutely let court know.

Let the courts decide.

Don’t give it to him

Let the court know NOW

It doesn’t work like that. Plus, I was told that child support would NOT be intercepting this stimulus check. It’s also stated on the CHild Support Online Services website.

Lol my ex is the same way. Let him report it then he will be the one to get in trouble. Id he is court ordered to pay then he must. If not he will pay the consequences

It’s court ordered tell him when they arrest him for contempt it will be him serving 100% of the time :joy::joy: it’s not a choice or a suggestion it’s a COURT ORDER

Child support does not equal visitation,…that is two separate issues…I keep reading if he/she pays child support than he can see his/her child …not the same

He is financially obligated and court ordered to pay what was figured…if im (reading this right) you are the primary caregiver meaning you provide what money can’t…emotional, mental, medical, etc etc…I can get technical but I think we get it.

I myself wouldn’t take any and let the court know.cause he can eat sleep and what ever else. But the child what? I my self don’t know why God gave these so call me two heads they always think with the no drain one.yes the one hanging

Well my daughters dad and me have spilt custody so I split it with him. But if he owes child support this stimulus isn’t child support so he should still have to pay .

Health later you got Wach if he don’t coff up

The court will collect from his stimulus/tax return if he’s behind

He owes you the money for child support. No court is going to tell him its ok to pay only $100. The money you get from stimulus is yours do not give him any. Tell him to go shove it up his ass!!

That’s not how it works. He doesn’t get to make any decisions. He should be giving you the 400 and the 600 shouldn’t be split

Report it to the courts,this doesn’t mean he has to make partial payment for child support,he is obligated to pay FULL amt. Ordered by the courts.

If he doesn’t pay it they will take it out of whatever funds they can. If it’s court ordered he doesn’t get to choose what he pays. If he gets his stimulus after your child support is due they will take it out of that. Or will put his ass in jail for failure to pay. :woman_shrugging:t3::woman_shrugging:t3: let him dig his own grave.

Thats a good excuse. I love how they can twist things.

If it’s court ordered he has to pay the full amount no if or but. If he gets behind on child support that will be his responsibility to pay. You receiving the stimulus check has nothing to do with what he has to pay and child support has nothing to do with legal and physical custody. He cannot pay but still see his kid however if he gets behind on child support, don’t help him by dismissing in court what he owes, don’t bail him out of jail either. And always keep records of everything, payments, emails, texts, receipts etc. Unfortunately some men focus on the money more than they focus on the children and being a “weekend parent” is enough to call it “being in the child’s life”.

That wasn’t a child support payment paid on his behalf. Take his ass to court.

He has to pay you the full amount it is court ordered he can get into trouble got to jail

Tell him, “I’ll let the courts decide what’s fair and go with that!”

He is court ordered to pay support? So if he doesn’t pay the full amount child support will know and will take the necessary next steps for falling behind. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Not always I’ve seen the court do crazy things

Hell No fuck that Mother Fucker

Let the courts know… unless you want to be nice… legally he needs to get an order from the court not to pay and the stimulus has nothing to do with child support…

Let him pay, but make sure you get a receipt to give to court.

He can’t legally do that. Let the court know

Sis take the 100$ but send a copy to the courts

does he pay you directly? My hubby had CS, and he paid the money to the state every month, and they added the funds to (the mothers Visa Card) Everything was kept on file for proof of payment.

He is court ordered the stimulus does not count towards his court ordered payment now if he has back pay in child support I heard they were not giving it to him they were giving it to you so I think that is back pay but I am not sure do not give him the money if he doesn’t pay it take him to court

If he does not pay he is in contempt of court and faces possible jail time. This isn’t a choice he gets to make. He either pays what he owes or face the consequences listed above. Period.

Thats not how it works dude​:joy::joy::joy: You dont pay…its called contempt

Your ex is a moron. Let him only pay the $100. He will then be behind on his support which will cause more harm than good. With the stimulus check, you don’t owe him anything.

Yeah he can be held in contempt for that. Its not the government’s job to help you provide for his kid.

Child support isn’t withholding this stimulus like last time.

If the cs isn’t court ordered then he doesnt have to send you anything. If he sends you anything below his agreement it will go to arrears so the courts would already know

Also, with child support, it will just go to what he owes from being behind. He will eventually have to pay it come tax season, if he files, they will take his arrears out then. Unfortunately, they don’t start the suspended license or jail possibility until he is so far behind. My child’s father is over $2,000 behind and they haven’t done anything to him but mail out an income withholding to his employer.

It doesn’t work that way. He either pays a while support payment or he. Can be charged with contempt

Yeah courts keep it clean and legal

Haha he is stupid. No he still has to pay the court ordered amount.

It doesn’t do no good because I have a niece that is dealing with the same and the judge reduce it so the courts are useless but yeah I understand that it’s about the kids

Yall setting there talking about how baby daddy’s dont want to pay… well have yall ever thought about going and working for your child… I took care of my child on my own… she is now 20 … i worked hard… i didnt get help from the government… and her dad was a person that didn’t want to take care of his responsibilities… so as a mother i did what i had to do to take care of my child… i dont care what yall think…

I guess it kind of bothers me that in these posts it’s only ever about the money. Typical agreements assign primary placement to keep things clean should they ever go to court. Is he a good dad? Does he hold up his end of the bargain most of the time? Would $300.00 make a big difference in his life? IMO, consider your child and your relationship with you child’s father as a whole. I gave my daughters father 1/2 my stimulus the first time and would do it again. It was something separate from child support given to me for our child.

Does it not come directly out of his check?

He has to legally send 400$

The opertune words here r “he was ordered to pay child support by the courts” . Stimulas money doesn’t change that. If working he should be getting his own stimulas check. Not based on whether u have children or not. U just can get more for the child. And it is for the child!!! Sounds like a lowlife to me trying to avoid his responsibilities.

Does he not get a stimulus

The $600 you receive for your child is none of his business.

He legally has to send the $400. Does it not automatically come out of his check if it’s court ordered? A stimulus doesn’t excuse his legal obligations. If he doesn’t, inform the court…period.

If it’s court ordered then it should be coming out of his paycheck. Not just him paying you here and there whenever he feels like it.

You should make your child support payments be tracked through the DSS system. They will know when he pays and doesn’t and unless you have joint custody I don’t think you owe a single thing to him but that’s something you should be asking your family court lawyer. You should Absolutely stop correspondence with him 100%.

Uh that’s not how it works buddy lol. He’s court ordered. He still has to pay of he can be behind like a loser. Don’t not only accept $100. That’s opening a door you can’t close.

If it’s court ordered then what’s the big deal? You don’t have to say nothing to the courts or to him, if he owes it then he still owes it on paper meaning they’ll take it from his stimulus or taxes anyways.

From my understanding the $600 stimulus everyone is getting nothing is supposed to be taken from it. Debt collector, owning back taxes and child support can’t touch it.

Lol that has nothing to do with his support

Report it to child support.

I work in a law office and you should report it. It is court ordered and he should be paying you the full amount.

The $600 is for the economy and buying them stuff for their rooms and such. It’s spending money, not money to pay for their clothes, school, etc. He didn’t have to pay $600 for them to get it, so he’s still responsible for the child support since you are the one caring for them

He should pay through the friend of the court.

Its court ordered id report it to the courts if he only send 100

Contact child support to make sure he pays what he’s supposed to, and stick to the legal decision that $400 is required from him. Put it in a high interest account - ING Savings Maximiser is the best. And one bright day you’ll be able to buy your child their first car/ overseas holiday, and that’s because you stuck to your guns of what’s right!!! Don’t let him push you around, he’s just being selfish and not putting the child first xxx Go Mama!!! :woman_superhero:t2::woman_superhero:t2::woman_superhero:t2::woman_superhero:t2::woman_superhero:t2:

If it’s court ordered he has to pay the court ordered amount or it will go into arrears. I would send a text back saying “per the court order, the child support payment is $400”and leave it at that. Nothing else. Even if he tries to bait you in. Then you have it documented for the courts should he decide to not pay and be in contempt.

Oh so he’s one of those :roll_eyes:

Do NOT give him half of the stimulus. If he doesn’t pay he will get behind, and as long has that is court ordered they will make sure you get the money. File court papers stating he refusing to pay. They will garnish his wages, take his license, take his taxes or lottery winnings, take his ass to jail. Just stay on the ball. If “provides” 50% of what he can afford of 50% of that child. You also have the child. So stimulus money is yours, and he still has to pay.

Court ordered, he doesn’t pay, he’s in contempt. If you alternate years claiming the child on taxes then split it.

First the child support should be going through the courts. They don’t care about the stimulus . He still owes child support in full

The money problem is a battle you dont want! There will be so many more battles to choose from. Figure out how to live without any child support and never depend on it and your life will become more peaceful.

The stimulus has nothing to do with what his child support obligations are and he needs to pay the required amount or be in arrears.

I am not with my daughters father either and he doesn’t pay me my court ordered child support. He owes me seventeen thosand

Yea that’s not how child support works. If he doesn’t send the full amount he’ll go into arrears. Which can result in the loss of license etc

If parents are separated and child support is paid, parent should be each given half.

If he is getting to see his child and talk to his child then he should pay what he’s ordered if your not letting him see or talk to his child and he’s making an effort to do so then I don’t think you deserve anything unless he has done something to hurt said child

The 600 is for the child not the parents… I dont know who he thinks he is trying to take any of a child’s stimulus. His ass needs to cough up the other 300

My comment may get lost. And I am all for a non custodial parent owing what they do and not skipping out but here’s the article on this stimulus check…

For those of you who don’t want to read the whole thing here’s an excerpt:

The second stimulus check comes with a huge change to overdue child support
Unlike the CARES Act, which made it legal for states to garnish the first stimulus check for more than $150 in arrears, new rules state that parents can keep the entirety of their second stimulus checks even if they owe child support. In fact, it prohibits seizing stimulus checks for most kinds of debt, including from private creditors and banks.

It also means that if you’re owed child support, you will not receive money taken from your child’s other parent in the next direct payment.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnet.com/google-amp/news/child-support-rules-in-a-second-stimulus-check-have-changed-in-a-big-way/

Sorry not how it works. A court order is a court order. Whomever gets to claim the child gets the money unless it states otherwise in the court order

If he is court ordered and it comes straight to you, let them know.

If e doesn’t send what he is court ordered to send, he is in contempt of court.

Its court ordered it doesn’t matter he still has to send whole amount. He will be behind.

If he ios court ordered then he owes the full 400… theres not adjustments except at Tax time when income is reported and support adjusted… Just because you recieve extra money from government or whatever program you recieved from doesnt mean he doesnt have to pay… I would report him

If it’s court ordered he doesn’t get to decide he sends what he is supposed to or he gets into trouble

If the court papers say 400 a month he doesn’t have the luxury to change that amount.

That $600 has nothing to do with your ex it’s not coming out of his pocket as court ordered. Turn him in. Just shows how greedy he is and exactly how he feels about your child

Let the court know he is in contempt of court

It’s a supplement not a replacement !

Y’all some rude ass baby moms. You’re literally about to get $1200 from this irs, that you most likely won’t even spend on your child and you can’t cut him some slack for 1 month? INSANE.
