my boyfriend just signed the papers to start paying child support. the payments are supposed to start on march 1st (he signed the papers at the prosecuting attorney's office in mid feb.) and his ex called him (at work!) telling him that he needed to do something or there is going to be a warrant for his arrest because she hadn't gotten a check from the state yet. i guess she expected to have the money in her hands promptly on the first of the month. we weren't aware that he process takes so long. how long does the process usually take? i'm in michigan and i know this state does favor the mother but can he really get arrested for this? is there something he needs to do or does she just have to wait until they get all the paperwork in order? i have a feeling she's not gonna let up until she gets that money and it's really upsetting when she calls him at work saying he's gonna get arrested. what do we need to tell her so she'll back off? btw, she's a flippin idiot. (obviously).

First off let's remember that we are dealing with an agency ran by government employees. So that being said he needs to get in touch with the case manager and make sure they are getting the payments. Secondly I will assume they are being taken out of his check each week. That being said then he has the proof on his side that it is being done. But again you are dealing with a government agency now. They do what they want when they want. So he needs to stay on top of this. It can take several weeks to sometimes months before his ex sees the payments. especially if it is going to two different states.
Third I really think he needs to go to his attorney and get a harrassment complaint filed on his ex. She sounds like a welfare psycho who thinks she is owed everything and she doesn't have to do a thing. I agree she should get the support but not at the cost of her ex losing his job or going to jail because she is an idiot.
No offense when I say this but you need to stay out of it. This is a bad situation and his ex is probably plenty bricks shy of a load. You being involved will only make it more difficult and lead to fihting you don't need. He needs to get this under control legally.

The only reason for him to get arrested, if he does not pay child support. Since the State takes it out of his pay check, he has nothing to worry about. The only time it would be a problem if he stops working. He must have been very late with his payments before, or why would the Prosecutor have him sign papers?

under maximum states' regulations, the two mothers and fathers are required to assist each and each toddler. touch your state's toddler help business enterprise in direction of the time you anticipate to furnish. some states set up a voluntary paternity technique for brand spanking new mothers and fathers. it somewhat is loose. simply by fact the quantity relies upon on the mothers and fathers' earning, a minor will possibly not have the skill financially to assist his toddler. yet you're growing to be to be the paternity selection up front to help you whilst he's able to pay.

She can get into big trouble by threatening him at work!
If she's having payment problems then she needs to contact her attorney NOT the father of her kids!
Your boyfriend should have received 'court documents' specifying the beginning date for the Child Support payments. If he never received them - then it is HIS responsibility to make sure the appropriate agency knows his current address at all times - if not, then he could go to jail.

If he signed the papers back in February and the payments were suppose to start in March, then he is in contempt of his order. He has to pay it no matter if the papers haven't been sorted.

The bum should have taken responsibility for paying his child support in the first place. I have no sympathy for those who lack the character to care for their own children. I would question who the flippin idiot really is in this case. Also this should give you some insight into your fate when he is through with you.

You need to butt out of this. It is none of your business.....you have no say when it comes to his children.....

If the money is due on March 1, he is late. What he should do is pay it....and, yes, he can be arrested. He must pay it until it starts coming out of his checks.......

first of all, it all takes time to get started.. she will see. she is just panic about things being shut off at her house and the child(ren) do without.

as for her calling him at work, she has no right to, for that puts his job at risk. i would give one warning, that thats it. after that file a motion pro se to get a court order (or restraining order) against her doing so again.

thats what i would do. one warning, then off to court i go to file for a restraining order.
