One has physical custody and one does not. They both might have "joint" custody but it's the "physical" part that counts. Yes but we all know this is just a legal word game. If the child spends equal time with each parent, they benefit from the money regardless of which parent is controlling it, so why bother transferring any of it? As an example, I have joint custody of my kids, but they do not live with me. Anyway, my kids spend around 30% of their overall time with me and my CS is thhe exact same as if they spent 0% of their time or 90% of their time. As long as the other has physical custody, I pay. That's the law. Oh, sure, it's the law, but I don't see how that law can be justified by the theory that the money transferred has anything to do with keeping the child's lifestyle up to previous levels. You say you have your child 30% of the time, what percentage of the time does the other parent have? If the child is in school, it isn't 70%! - Ron ^*^ |

my question is this, can the courts touch my cash award to pay child support. I am looking to go to court and get the support payments lowered as 125.00/wk is a lot to someone with no income. Any input is appreciated! thanx. If you are not behind on your support payments, that money should be yours alone. There are certain monies they can't touch i.e. disability payments, ssan, etc. Call your local OSE office without giving your name and ask them.

Workman's Compensation and settlements, as well as SSD (Not SSI), and unemployment compensation are considered income for CS calculation. |
