Do you have to pay back child support if you pay child support now?

Yes. If you have accumulated arrears (back support) even though youre paying support now, that back support is still owed. What happens is that the state where your case resides calculates what your regular support obligation is PLUS a certain dollar amount representing the back support for example if your current support is $100/week and they attach, say, $25 to help pay arrears, your weekly obligation would be $125 until the arrearage is satisfied.
So, just because you are paying now does not wipe out what you might have owed in back support, youll still have to pay it eventually.
