I wnat to go back to school to use my GI bill. But I have child support. I might leave my job to persue this full time and wonder what would happen to my payments as soon as I get another job. I live in the NYC area.. So I would have to abide by NYS rules. Is there anyone that may know.

Your ex shouldn't have to bear the full burden temporarily... You are responsible since you are the absent parent. Without any income, your payments will build, your Drivers License will be suspended, and when you do find a job again, you will be responsible for the back pay. Which, by the way, you will not have a choice on how much they will garnish from your check.
Pay your Child Support. Don't be a deadbeat dad.

If you quit your job then your children will be forced to go on welfare. Once you go back to work the government will garnish your wages in order to regain the funds they put out to support your children and on top of that you will also have your regular montly child support to contend with. The government can also withhold any income tax refunds until all arrears while you were unemployed are paid off and they can also step in and take whtever winnings you get gambling. Welfare is no longer a free ride.

you will be pursued by child support enforcement and all of the child support that you skip will become a debt that incurs interest annually. Morally, you should keep working enough to pay the support. What if everyone responsible for your child decided to quit supporting it? Other people shouldn't have to pick up that slack. My ex is having a tough time catching up. They take an extra $250 a month for what he didn't pay when he was out of work, take his tax refunds and he's paying back the state I live in for medical expenses the government covered for my son(he's required to provide medical insurance coverage). It pays to stay on top! You can go to school AND work. Good luck

You can apply for a temporary waiver for your child support or you can also apply for What they call TANIF or temporary assistance for needy families to help you support your family while you are a full time student.Talk to your ex See if she would be willing to bear the full burden for at least a short period of time while you are in school and then maybe you could and should do the same thing for her if she wants to go back to school for something.Try and reach a compromise but if your ex isn't financially prepared to take care of your kids by her self at least for a little while then you need to just keep your job and try to figure something els out because you cant just walk out on your kids if they need you.
Your kids might need that few hundred dollars a month don't pull food out of your kids mouth for selfish reasons I am sorry but they come first before anything you might want to do right?

do no longer quit your interest merely yet. you will first want to petition the court docket that entered your toddler help order to permit you to briefly shrink your help legal duty. counting on how nicely you have deliberate this out, the decide would evaluate permitting a brief alleviation to be a solid investment for the toddler (i.e., a alleviation for 2-4 years may be amply repaid in greater effective earnings -- examine: greater effective toddler help -- for the time of something of the toddler's minority). merely be constructive to ask the court docket first. this will require a lawsuit.

Your ex will probably apply for state help. Don't think it's free though, when you finally get another job the state will stick you with a bill for what they paid. I know this from experience.

It isn't the later I would worry about. I would worry about possible enforcement of your obligations. Regardless, there is a human life attached to those payments.
