my husband is confident that because he just got disabled by Social Security and receives payments per mo. of $1742 for himself and he can earn $850 per mo. in addition and still keep his benefits, that he doesn't have to pay child support at all. I receive $612 for both kids only from Social Security.

If you are receiving money for the kids from Social Security based on his being disabled, he is getting SSDI. This is money that he gets based on his having worked enough credits. The money that you are getting is probably all you can get, and you get this in lieu of any child support. You can file for child support from him, but there is no guarantee that the judge will approve additional funds since the kids are already getting benefits from his SSDI.

If the money you receive from SSI is not enough to support your children the best way to approach it would be to go to the State Dept of Dependent children where you live and they will help you file for a percentage of your husbands Disability benefits, if he cannot show that he would face a hardship then the court would enforce the payments through the department of families.

A child support order is not affected by the source of income. The only way to legally reduce the support he pays is to petition the domestic relations court, or whatever they call it where you are, to revise the support order.

IF he's authorized for ssd, the quantity of money he gets each and each month would be desperate by how long he'd paid in, and how plenty he'd paid in. If he has a baby, or infants, each and each baby will acquire their very own separate verify, back in keeping with how long and how plenty he paid in. as an occasion, my chum's husband grew to become disabled, and alter into (after an prolonged and tedious era) offered SSD. He gets $one thousand a month, and each and each of his 2 infants get $3 hundred a month. they have for the reason that divorced, and now the ladies' exams bypass to their mom for the reason that they stay along with her. Now for the undesirable information. It normally takes 3 yrs to get authorized for SSD. They very nearly continuously turn each and every physique down the 1st time. then you definitely repeal, they turn you down back, then there's a listening to, and ultimately, with the help of an criminal expert (who gets a million/3 of the decrease back pay) you eventually get offered your SSD.

Count yourself lucky to get that much, I have heard of people who claim no taxable income to pay nothing at all.

That's all he's responsible for. He's declared disabled, no judge can overrule that. Sorry, it kinda sucks.
