Every state has different laws about this type of situation. In most states if the father does not pay any child support at all and has had no communication with the child for over 6 months, it is considered child abandonment and their rights can be taken away from them.

∙ 14y agoIf the father gave up all parental rights - then he would not have to pay child support. Plus, if the mother is out of the country and is an illegal immigrant - she would not be a part of the child support system. She would need to be in this country. But, the main things is - if the father "legally" (signed papers) to give up his parental rights, then he is not liable for child support.

∙ 12y agoChild support and visitations are separate issues. A custodial parent has no authority to deny court ordered visitations if the non-custodial parent is not paying their child support. The custodial parent must take the issue of child support arrears back to court by filing a motion for contempt and seeking the assistance of the state child support enforcement agency.
Remember that an unmarried father must establish his paternity in court in order to establish his parental rights and obtain a court ordered visitation schedule. At that time the mother can request a child support order.

Can illegal immigrant mom sue illegal resident father for child support?
i doubt it. as she is illegal, there's no record of her being in the country. thus, she doesn't exist in the country and she cant go to court without someone else papers or a fake identification. Actually, child support does not request evidence of being here legally to open a case. They get 15% in federal matching funds on all child support paid. In this economy, they are not going to pass up every possible case to open.

Can an illegal immigrant mother receive child support if she leaves country and father gives up all rights?
If the father Legally gave up his parental rights - (signed legal papers), then he is no longer legally responsible to pay child support for the child. Did he give up parental rights so you could remove the child from the country? A family member of mine had to have her baby's father sign away his parental rights so he would not have to pay child support when he entered the military. So - once parental rights are signed away Legally, the father has NO obligation to pay child support. You cannot have it both ways - you cannot have him sign away his parental rights, yet still expect him to pay child support.
