There are no specific requirements that the money be spent on the child. She can tell a stepfather that she's not getting any, letting him support the children, while spending the support on other things.

The biggest problem with this type of question is the lack of understanding on how child support works. Frequently the obligor thinks that none of it should go toward housing due to the other parent also living there, while the obligee thinks it should cover 100% of the cost of housing.

Are you sending the money to the child or the guardian of the child? Is the child 18 or older? If you aren't doing this you can't keep the money. If the child is still dependent on you for their financial support, say while they are going to school. Otherwise, usually not, the support is intended for the child's up keep. One exception may be if the move is only temporary and you are maintaining a residence where the child will be returning to after a limited time away.

Can i claim money from my biological father when he has never been around or paid child support?

I believe your "active" parent would need to initiate and start the process. The money you seek from the absent parent, by law, would be for child support for the active parent to help with expenses that occur with raising a child. I recommend contacting your local Child Support Agency to ascertain what steps your active parent needs to take to see if they (you) can start the process. You can do a search by typing "child support" and add in your city, state. Good Luck! But, be careful in this regard. A growing number of relationships with mothers are being destroyed when the children are learning their mothers did get child support and was denying the father access to his children. There are non government programs to help enforce court order visitation like there is for child support.
