    How is Child Support Determined if NCP Has Two Separate Cases
    My question involves child support in the State of: New york
    I have 2 children by 2 different mothers.Both children are the same age and born the same day.I just found out about the 2nd child and the mother wants to take me for child support.I already pay for child support for the 1st child I pay $25 a month and when I work it will go up to 17%.What will I have to pay for the 2nd child by the other mother is it 17% also or less? And would it matter what child was born first that day for the bigger percentage or would my 1st c.s.case stay at the max?

    Does it matter? Even if you paid the same your getting away with 50 bucks a month.....that wont even cover my trash bill, and New York is way more exspensive then Missouri. How do you only pay 25$ a month??

    'Cause the minimum allowable by law is $25/month in NY.

    And as you and I both know...that's a pittance. At least it's something though, y'know?

    OP needs to get off his butt and get a couple of even part-time, min wage jobs.

    I understand hard times but we were just talking to a woman who was mad because her fiance was in jail for back child support because he couldnt find a job. That is not the kids fault. But hopefully he will find some jobs to make sure those babies are well taken care of. And you can google childsupport calculator. Not all states have them but it never hurts to look and see if yours does. Gah.......25$ a month. I would throw the biggest fit lol

    Hey, pal, you were there when it was time to play; now you get to be there when it's time to pay. It's not the fault of EITHER of those kids that you couldn't keep your pants zipped. They both deserve the support of the individual whose DNA created them.
