If a person pays child support via money order and actually puts "child support payments" on the money order but isn't through the court system, is it still considered a gift by law and if not will they have the same rights for visitation of the child by law

Depends on the law of the court that ordered payments. If it was ordered to pay through the state, it is probably considered a gift done any other way.

Yes he/she has the right to visit their child unless they are a threat to the child and the child support is a verbal agreement and it's not a gift it's just what it says "Child Support" money to assist in the support of the child. Why would you want to keep someone from their child anyway let them see each other who cares as long as the child isn't being hurt, people only want what they can't have you say no visits then the child and the parent become crazy for each other you say visit as much as you like and they both just take the visits as they come believe me been there done that and staying out of the way is the best way for everybody.

I suggest you talk to an attorney who specializes in family law/visitation rights. You're talking a possibility of 2 jurisdictions.
