Child Support North Carolina

There are many reasons that you might ask the mother or father of your child to pay child support. Most of the time, the law will dictate the child support. Many people get child support after they have gone through a divorce. They also might get child support if the mother or father of their child is not present in the life of the child in the way that they should be. In some situations, you might be responsible for making child support payments, or you could be the one who is asking for child support for your own children. No matter who is paying the child support, it is important that you understand how it works. For many families, child support is a major source of income for the child. Often, a child's life is made much better because of child support.

2 . Who Decides Child Support?

In a perfect world, parents would decide on the amount of child support that they either pay or receive. In some situations, child support is an oral or written contract between two parents. It might be that a man does not wish to be involved in his child's life, but does wish to support that child financially. In these situations, the man and woman could make an agreement about the amount of child support to be collected, without involving the courts.

This agreement might be easy to make in the beginning, and it might seem much more stress free to do so instead of dealing with a judge, but persons entering into this type of agreement should be careful. If you have an oral or written child support agreement that has not been certified by a judge or gone over by a legal advisor, it might be possible for the other party to back out of it without having any legal ramifications. Therefore, even if the relationship between you and the other person is good at the present time, it is always best to go through a lawyer or judge, just to make sure that the child support will always be there.

3 . How Much Child Support Do You Get?

Child support collections usually take place on a monthly basis. There are many factors that will determine how much child support you and your children get. For instance, the city and state in which you live will play a role in the amount of child support you receive. It is important to seek legal guidance when dealing with child support collection. This is because in order to collect child support, you must take into consideration the area where you live, the standard of living in this area, and other factors such as the health of the child. You will also get more money based upon the number of children that the child support is covering. It can get complicated, so dealing with the courts is always a good idea.

If you have not received child support before, and your children are under 18 years old, you might be eligible for collecting child support for earlier years. However, again there are many factors to consider when it comes to back child support. It is vital to seek a lawyer's help in this situation, because you must be sure you are proceeding in accordance with the state and local guidelines when it comes to child support.

4 . Child Support and Child Custody

Child support is most often seen in custodial cases. Again, there are factors that will determine the relationship between child support and custody. Although there are set guidelines for judges to follow regarding child support, most of them will make case-by-case rulings, so the best agreement can be made for each family.

In the vast majority of cases, child support will be paid to the custodial parent by the non-custodial parent. However, the non-custodial parent might still have visitation rights. In cases where both parents have equal custody, the child support will usually have a lot to do with the finances of both parents. For instance, if one parent makes a considerable amount more than another parent does, they might be required to pay child support even if they have joint or equal custody. Each child support and custody case is dealt with on a case-by-case basis for these reasons.

If a parent leaves the other parent or abandons the child, or if that parent does not wish to be involved in the child's life, the courts will usually force that parent to pay child support, even if they do not wish to do so. These are cases that can get tricky for the courts to enforce, because many people become "Dead-beats" and do not pay the child support that they are supposed to pay.
