I was just curious since my daughters father has been locked up since last january. Does he still owe for all the months he's been in jail or do they put a hold of some kind on it???

NOPE, it doesnt stop. it just keeps racking up... weekly. those children dont stop eating, needing a place to live, medical attention, etc while he is in there.
so basically, he will have to pay child support when he gets out, plus arrears amount (usually an extra $20 or so per week).

Even in Jail, the ex will OWE for child support (although the amount may be lowered while he is incarcerated). It will keep adding up, and if he has no property or any other way of paying for the support, then it will accumulate as an arrearage (with associated interest applied to the outstanding balance).

NO as a SOcial Worker I can tell you that the child support continues to accrue, they begin to look at property and other ways of getting the money. THe required amount will be reduced while in custody but it IS NOT SUSPENDED

I think he has to make these support payments up when he is released.

they usually put a hold on it since he's NOT able to look for work.
