My husband and I have been seperated since the birth of my son he has given me 390 in the past 2 1/2 months to support him. He makes 4,000 a month, will the court order support to go back to the day I filed or the day of court?

It use to depend upon what the custodial parent asked for honey. But now that's no longer the case. Back in January, a law was passed that only allows a custodial parent to go back three months from the DATE OF FILING for support. ..or in your case, the date you filed for divorce..BUT you have to ask or they'll just order it to begin on the actual judgement date. I'm rather surprised an order was not put into place during the proceedings of the divorce...that is a little odd, they are suppose to issue an order while the divorce proceedings are pending. The reasoning behind this, is that if you needed the money before, you would have asked for an order when your son was born.

I think they go by the date the court order on child support was ordered. That's the way they do it in my State.

They go back to the date that you filed the paperwork. It also depends what state you and him live in. Now if he gets paid cash well that will be hard for Child Suppport to prove.
Good Luck.....

It is up to the court ( judge )...
It could go either way or somewhere in between...
It does not sound like hubby is voluntarily paying his fair share...
That will go against him in the judges eyes...

Depends on your state. Would be a great question for your lawyer or representative.

depends on your state/local laws and/or the judge. I'd check with your attorney.
