Yes she can. I suggest she open a case with the local child support office; services are free, some may require an initial $25 application fee. Her caseworker can then take many legal actions against the non-custodial parent.

It depends on which state you live in. She should seek the advice of counsel or perhaps your local Attorney General's office. That's who helps collect child support in Arizona.
She should also get his income tax returns at the end of the year if he is in arrears.

yes, child support is based on all earnings that an employee receives.

Laws vary from state to state, but most states allow garnishing wages. She just needs to go to court and prove paternity.
