It depends if you live in a state that considers a married couples assets joint, or community, money.
If you do not live in this type of state, then no. It is your husbands responsibility not yours.
i got a large sum of money from my ex husband 401 k when we got divorced do i have to report it to child support
Child support is paid to the wife so she can have money to raise the child. Maybe your husband made more money than his wife when they were still married. It's all in divorce papers. Talk to your husband about it.
Your ex-husband's death does not change your support obligation - the child's needs continue. And, even if the child is of the age of majority, the money is still owed the father's estate.
Yes, unless you can prove that it's not your money.
The state sets the rates for child support. If he has paid up and is not in arrears, then the money is his to spend.
No, because she has nothing to do with your and your ex's child support situation. That is how it works in TN, anyway. The only tax money you are entitled to is solely that of your ex-husband.
It depends on the state. If your state calculates child support based on household income, then yes, she would be required to pay her husband's child support. If your state calculates child support based on only the non-custodial parent's income, then no, should would not be required to pay. However, her husband would still owe that money, and it will continue to accumulate as a debt until he pays it.
Up to the limit of child support laws.
You're not responsible for your husband's children. He needs to file for a modification of his child support order. However, you should think about marrying a person who is in debt and cannot afford to support his children. He will not have any money to contribute to your mutual living expense or any children you might have with him.
Your husband's current income has nothing to do with what he owes in back child support. If he owes money to his kids then he owes money to his kids. The money may not be able to be taken from him because it is social security but he still owes the money and should make arrangements to pay it. To protect your child(ren), still file with Domestic Relations Court. However, be prepared that the Judge could suspend any order for now.
if the child is not living with you, then the money needs to go directly to the child, not to you, so yes, he can take you to court, unless you can prove that you are also supporting your child with the money he has sent you.
Up to the moment he adopted her yes. The child ate, had a roof over her head and had to be clothed before she was adopted too, right? The money isn't your ex-wifes, it's money you owe your child.
