The non-custodial parent (father in MO) has never had contact and has been paying child support since the custodial parent (mother in FL) filed in Florida 1998, the child has been out of the mother's home in juvenile detention and youth camps since 2003 (age 14) until May 2006 (age 17.) The father payed support through out that time '03-'06 (no arrearages just awarded obligation) and continues to do so (until the child turns 18 this Oct.) The father's where abouts have been known by the mother since 1998 (according county clerk records) and he was never notified. The mother collects under an alias and has this year updated her address to HHS from her mother's address to her own (she purchased a home and has been living there since 2002.)
is this considered fraud? modifications, aside has she committed a crime?
