WHO KNOWS HOW CHILD SUPPORT WORKS?
- Thread starter p.ellz

bottom line is, unless you can convince her to leave it out of the system, then them people are gonna be in your life. even if you could convince her to leave it out of the system for now, she could always come back on a whim and mollywhop your ass for back support. it's almost better to get it over with, especially in a case where the mother is emotional or vindictive.
i'd like to say i know how it works (but i live in missouri). i never heard of no shit like that before though, giving half of your money to the state? how is this legal? i really don't get it. lol

theres no way out of it unless you sign up your parental rights or if the female drops it(which isnt worth it bc she can play games with you and always go back and refile).
Also if you rich or make real decent amount of money(which i doubt you do or else you wouldnt be making a threads about it and be talking to a lawyer) if she willing you could just pay the female off(alot of athletes do it that way just write the female a check for 50,000 dollars and not pay support)

If you dont wanna go through the courts you better do what i did for my first baby mother, if she down thats to get a lawyer to print up a contract and get it notorized with you and her signature agreeing on how much money or what items you supplying the kid(you gotta do it in money orders)
Honestly if you ask me its easier to go through the courts(long as you work or get money to pay it) that way you dont have to go through head games (if she plays them) bc that notority contract dont guarantee you visting rights but teh courts will thats why i changed over like two years ago.

alright alright alright, it goes like this (speaking from experience)
they are going to schedule a court date for you to appear ((if you don't they will just issue a payment amount with out you even having a say in the amount)) and you will be ordered to give them your expenditures ((your bills, payments on house, car etc)) From there they look at how much you make and then the judge will make a decision on how much you should pay.
There is NO WAY out of it once they have your social security number, no matter what job you get, unless your paid under the table, they will garnish it for child support. The only way you can lessen the payment is to give them a laundry list of things you need to pay off and it will lower your payment amount. You can also still claim your child as a dependent btw.
In my case, Me and my babymomz split and i was NOT working for the first 3 months, but as soon as i got my first paycheck from the mortuary i was working at, it was garnished with a payment PLUS interest for the first 3 months i was out the house. Even tho i gave my B/M whatever skrill i could get at the time when i wasn't living their, i didnt make any notes or reciepts so they considered it a "non-payment" period, and made me pay for those 3 months i was out the house plus my regular child support payment.
