    Can a Foreign National File for Child Support in the U.S.
    My question involves child support in the State of: Texas

    Recently, I've came across a problem. I've been dating a philippina for about 5 months now and i would travel to the Philippines every other month to spend time with her. Recently, she became pregnant and when she found out she wanted nothing to do with me anymore. She claimed her child was hers and not mine, i can't be there for him/her, etc... Although i feel quite bad about this as in a way i kind of feel used and the thought of someone taking my child away from me is saddening. I'm unsure if there's a particular reasoning behind her actions or not.

    Can an illegal alien who has never been to the states however, has a child from a u.s. citizen in her country still file for child support against me? I'm wondering if her reasoning behind this was to take money from me and live a simple life.

    She can try however the Hague Convention does not apply. Unless she found a way to get into the US and approach you are fine, R=This is simply another arm of a Filipino trading sex and companionship for US citizenship. Getting knocked up is half the battle. Now she will come back with the need to establish paternity, support and give him citizenship before you get to see him.

    Eh. fair enough... but to comment on that with my own side of the story. I met her on vacation in barcelona surfing... and one thing led to another... i didnt go searching for it although that's typically the perception.
