Paying Alimony and Child support - but ex has undeclared income !!
My divorce went thru this Feb 2005.
Separation since August 2004, Settlement Agrrement signed in Dec2004. My ex-wife had started claiming unemployment since earlier that year. Now per the settlement I am paying her Alimony and Child support of nearly half the amount of my take home pay. Paid all arrears since separation Aug 2004 till date. Now the issue is she is working and always has been working (!) with some cash only commission only etc deals I guess , since I know that she is working or is busy fulltime doing Event Management , TV shows , MEdia Sales etc . But all of these are with some of her friend's companies mainly Indian entrepreneurs or businesses. She is Indian too. Of late she is also selling real estate in India to the non resident indians here , getting commission. But these incomes are all UNDECLARED I would guess. I am thinking of hiring a lawyer and asking for investigation or whatever it entails , but just checking here if anyone has any ideas comments on such an issue ?? |

If she's hiding money from the IRS she will be in much greater trouble than hiding it from you. ==== |

Paying Alimony and Child support - but ex has undeclared income !!
Thanks for the suggestions.
- Regd IRS not sure if I just call without proof that she has undeclared income would help ? - Also we have 2 kids with shared custody 50% each and hence due to kids am hesitant to make it that bitter with irs reporting and all - and I am still paying per month $1200 just for kids and $800 alimony which is huge for me...this is california.. - I was thinking of filing for 'reduction in support' but she hasnt filed for this years taxes yet , I will have to wait till after april. And if she still does not declare , and I dont have proof ( circumstantial evidence) . How does it work ? - Also these companies are too smat also they have been doing things like these foy years with the visa immigration salary payments etc..they would pay the rent or offer some allowance and suc and provide a low salary for tax puposes... |

She is Indian too. She must be paying income tax on her earnings else she's in violation of the law. Additionally, there are checks being written and deposited in to an account for the transactions. Both the tax returns and the bank account statements can be subpoenaed for evidence. I would advise getting an attorney to do the job though. === After a case is established, the parties can file their own subpoenas for documents. I did it in FL with my husband's ex's employer. At first they refused to send salary records but complied after I sent them statutory reference that if the "keeper of the record" failed to release said record, the keeper can be held responsible for all costs the requester incurs to get the record. She was state employed which is different with public disclosure, however, the parties in a case, can file subpoenas and requests for documents from the other party. Judges don't look kindly on parties who refuse to turn over documents critical to the case. The judge in my husband's case was quite upset with his ex for dragging her feet on the production of documents. === |

Well, if you do call the IRS, and they do find something on her (namely not
declaring her actual income, filing taxes, etc..) then, when you take this info to the court, you could easily find yourself having custody of the children and your X paying you C$ and alimony. Just a thought.. |

I was thinking the same thing!
Never mind the "nice" crap. YOU are having your wallet RAPED by the courts! $2000 per month??? Sounds like indentured slavery if I ever heard it! And she has the gaul to sneak $$$ on the side and lie about it so YOU have to keep paying full $$$$???? Man, you are being had! Wake up and smell the coffee!
