The child father lock up for 13 years and the child support people said they can only go back but so far is that true?

That depends on whether an order was in place. If so, there is no statute of limitations on collecting unpaid child support. If the agency is just now preparing to ask for an order, the retroactive support is based on a percentage of his net income during the retroactive period - i.e., in this case, virtually nothing. Also, it's very unusual to order retroactive support for 13 years.

Do incarcerated fathers still pay child support even if they are in arrears?

This depends on if the father has an income while he is incarcerated,such as income from a business that the father owns and that is still able to operate without him while he is in prison or if the father is eligible for a work release program from the prison or if the father is eligible for an inmate job in the prison.. If the father is incarcerated and is not eligible for any such programs and has no other means of income then the child support will continue to be added to his unpaid balance and will be waiting for him to begin paying when he is released..


Do you pay child support if you are bankrupt?

No, in fact you have to be caught up on child support in order to file for bankruptcy. Your lawyer may have a way around that but you will still owe the money. You shouldn't look at child support as a bill but rather a way of supporting your child. Why are you in arrears? If you were hit with a multi year retroactive order on a child you didn't know existed, or there was a clearly valid reason for not paying the full amount, than you may have grounds for a retroactive reduction, according to Judge David Grey Ross, Commissioner of the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement. see links below You do not have to be "caught up" on child support in order to file for bankruptcy; however, child support is not discharged in bankruptcy.
