Not usually - the amount of support is set either by the divorce decree or by court action, and is usually based on your salary and other income. A one-time windfall settlement should not affect it.
HOWEVER - if it is received in the form of an on-going annuity payment, which would have the effect of supplementing your income, it MIGHT be subject to being included in your child support calculation.
See Link BelowChild Support Age-At what age does child support stop and what steps need to be taken to bring this about?
Show the court that: the child is deceased; the child is emancipated; the child has attained majority; you have no income other than public assistance.
Not if they are addressed seperately in the order for support or divorce decree. Even if you are not ordered to pay for the auto insurance, you cannot reduce the amount that you pay to the custodial parent without their consent or an order from the court. If they refuse to allow the deduction the only thing you can do is stop paying for the auto insurance. However, it the agreement to pay auto insurance was one that you made separate from the child support, you are then dealing with a contract situation because you made a contract, even if it was only verbally, to pay for the insurance and before cancelling that contract you need to give proper notice of cancellation.
In general, child support is a percentage of net income - in Illinois, 20% for one child. When calculating support for younger children, support actually ordered and paid for older child[ren] is subtracted from net income.
Illinois charges obligors $36.00 a year per case to collect and distribute child support payments. Many jurisdictions charge court fees (e.g., the cost of the trial) to obligors.
In Illinois, generally, support for one child is 20% of the obligor's net income. Net income is gross minus amounts withheld for union dues, health/dental insurance, FICA/Medicare, and taxes (based on the tax tables).
No. They do not.
In Illinois, each child support payment is a civil judgment.
no
probably
A child support law in Illinois requires the non-custodial parent to purchase a percentage of their net income child support. The rates are 20% for 1 child, 28% for 2 children and 32% for 3 children.
no
yes
yup
Such a move will not change the amount of support owed. Illinois will likely ask Tennessee to register the support order.
Not exactly. In Illinois, child support cannot be ordered past the age of majority but "education support" can be. One or even both parents may be ordered to pay education support, based on the child's academic expenses. Education support must also be ordered by a judge, separately from a child support order.
If you are capable of providing health insurance for your child and the other parent can not for what ever reason then yes, you can be required to provide coverage. Child support is supposed to be support to cover the expenses for the child divided between the parents. Clearly the child needs a health insurance. The cost can be a part of the child support or be added. Both parents have a obligation to make sure the child can get care. Usually child support only covers a smaller part of what a child's expenses are, not 50/50. Each state has child support guidelines that take health insurance costs into consideration.
