If you're responsible for providing the health care (as the non-custodial parent) then yes. Perhaps you and your ex can split it, the cost being significant, but don't count on it! Laws vary state to state, this is not the forum for an exact legal answer you can take to the bank. Keep that in mind!

What are the rights of a custodial parent needing to move out of state when the non custodial parent has visitation?
It depends on the state laws where you live and the stipulations of your divorce decree. Generally, you cannot move the child without the consent of the non-custodial parent and the court. The visitation order would require modification.

All these words are usually defined in the divorce decree, assuming there is a divorce involved and the words are used. Everything is usually particularly defined in that decree, including medical care for the child. Factors come into play when a child is involved. Check and see, in the divorce decree, if responsibilities are spelled out in the decree.

Can it be part of the divorce decree who gets to claim the children for tax purposes?
Yes, but that is not the end of the story.The divorce decree can specify who gets to claim the dependent exemption for the child for income tax purposes. However, there is a specific attachment the noncustodial parent must file with his or her tax return each year to claim the exemption.In general, the IRS allows the custodial parent to claim the dependency exemption. The custodial parent is the parent with whom the child lived for the greater part of the year. The other parent is the noncustodial parent. If the parents divorced or separated during the year and the child lived with both parents before the separation, the custodial parent is the one with whom the child lived for the greater part of the rest of the year.The rules as to when the noncustodial parent can claim the exemption changed effective for tax years beginning after July 2, 2008 (the 2009 calendar year for most taxpayers.)POST-2008 DECREE OR AGREEMENTFor divorce decrees that went into effect after 2008, the custodial parent must sign Form 8332, Release/Revocation of Release of Claim to Exemption for Child by Custodial Parent(or a similar form,) and give the signed form to the noncustodial parent to release the exemption. The noncustodial parent must attach that form to his or her tax return to claim the exemption that year.The noncustodial parent can no longer attach certain pages from a divorce decree or separation agreement instead of Form 8332 if the decree or agreement was executed after 2008.The custodial parent can specify on Form 8332 the release applies to only the current tax year or all future tax years. To help ensure future support, you may not want to release your claim to the exemption for the child for future years.POST-1984 / PRE-2009 DECREE OR AGREEMENTIf the divorce decree or separation agreement went into effect after 1984 and before 2009, the noncustodial parent can still attach certain pages from the decree or agreement instead of Form 8332.However, the custodial parent who gave up the exemption via the divorce decree does not appear to be without recourse. See "To revoke a prior release of exemption" below.PRE-1985 DECREE OR AGREEMENTThe rules are again slightly different if the divorce decree or separation agreement went into effect before 1985. See the instructions for Form 8332 if that applies to your situation.TO REVOKE A PRIOR RELEASE OF EXEMPTIONForm 8332 can also be used to revoke a prior release of exemption. The revocation is effective no earlier than the tax year beginning in the calendar year following the calendar year in which the custodial parent provides, or makes reasonable efforts to provide, the noncustodial parent with written notice of the revocation.For example, if the custodial parent provides notice of revocation to the noncustodial parent in 2009, the earliest tax year the revocation can be effective is the tax year beginning in 2010. You can use Part III of Form 8332 for this purpose.You must attach a copy of the revocation to your return for each tax year you claim the child as a dependent as a result of the revocation. You must also keep for your records a copy of the revocation and evidence of delivery of the notice to the noncustodial parent, or of reasonable efforts to provide actual notice.

Does a father have the rights to cancel a weeks child support money if the child stays with him for that week?
No , neither party of the divorce are allowed the option of altering the divorce decree without it being written into the contract/court-order . -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Not arbitrarily however the only constant in the universe is change. This can be modified depending on the relationship between the custodial and non custodial parents, and does differ state to state (and divorce decree vs divorce decrees) on how modifications can take place. Obviously, if both parents consent to the arrangements they can notify the courts of the arrangements, but to be safe always get it in writing, with notary. I would consult the courts prior to making such arrangements if at all possible. There are cases where the custodial parent has to give temporary custody of the child over to the non-custodial parent for any number of reasons being work, illness, family emergencies etc. in which case under no circumstances should that parent have to pay support to the other parent because they are supporting the child for that duration. Get the arrangement in writing (with notarized statement from custodial parent).
