If I live in Georgia, can a have a checking account in North Carolina frozen for back child support?

Question

Is it legal to cross states like that? Who do I talk to?

WOW!! Guys, Im the one trying to collect here!! Back the F off!!!

Im the mom here people! Im trying to find out if I can have someones bank accounts frzn. Where did you all miss that??

Answer 1

they missed it because so many deadbeats on here actually have the nerve to ask here how they can avoid child support.

if your caseworker isnt on the ball, pull rank.

1) call your caseworker and ask:
--where you apply for interest on the arrears?
--was the case submitted for tax refund intercept?
--was the arrears reported to the credit reporting agencies yet?

2) sit down and write a letter. in it, give your contact info, case number, his info, arrears amount, him quitting his job (with such a huge arrears amount) and ask them what they are doing about it.

then take that ONE letter and FAX it to the following:
a) your states Attorney General (link is below)
b) your states Governor (link is below)
c) your states Regional FEDERAL Child Support Office (link is below)

fax to these in BOTH states reps and officals if he resides in a different state.

phone calls are useless; they are ignored, denied and forgotten. mail ends up on someones "to do" pile, but FAXES are effective. its proof you sent it and proof they recieved it, therefor, they HAVE to address it. if you cant find a fax number (most are listed online) then just call them and ask for it.

if you hear nothing in a week, fax them again. fax them weekly if need be. its the squeaky wheel that gets the oil, if ya know what i mean.

3) post his DEADBEAT FACE ON A DEADBEAT SITE ONLINE.

Answer 2

You would have to retain a NC attorney and petition the NC County District court where your ex lives.
There is a recent Law passed in NC that allows a lien to be placed on checking accounts of the person that owes arrearages in a support case. But it depends on if its a NC order that requires him to pay, or is it a GA order that NC is enforcing?
Your best bet is retain a NC family law attorney and have him/her review the matter

Answer 3

Because the child support issue is that of a "civil" case...you can garnish ones wages to obtain back child support. This has to come from a court order though!

Your BEST bet is to contact a local attorney who specializes in "family law" to assist you in this matter.

Best wishes!

Answer 4

Even if the money is in an international account, the account can be frozen. There are few hidden money shelters in the world. They are mostly for the very rich.

Answer 5

What you need to do. Is delete this question and re-word it. Can I have my ex-husband checking account garnished for child support. Technically it is not frozen. It is garnished. Yes you can in some states but you will need to get a court order. Check with your lawyer.

Answer 6

Yes. There's a uniform enforcement of child support act. I represent a local government and get child support garnishments from many states that I have to honor. You need to talk to a family law atty who can help you get on a payment plan. They can take your IRS refund, too,

Answer 7

Yes.

Child support is governed by Title IV-D of the Social Security Act of 1975. They can go after anything you've got, from your wages to your tax refunds to offsetting any public assistance you receive (if applicable).
--------

I'm adding to my post because of your new information:
Go to your office of child support services and talk to them about helping you enforce the judgment.

Answer 8

Pay your freakin' child support!

Answer 9

Yep it's legal, when you owe you owe, it's not regulated to statelines!

Answer 10

ANY place your ex has money is fair game. To include tax returns.


If you are upset about answers that attack YOU, maybe you should make your question more clear.............
