    Unhappy How to Stop Child Support Now That the Child Lives in My Home

    My question involves child support in the State of: Texas. The mother kicked the child out of her home which resulted in the child moving to my home for more than 4 months as of to date. The child will be 18 in approximately 8 months. I have faithfully paid child support as ordered by the courts via divorce in addition to not being in arrears. I have contacted the child support agency and have not received any help other than being told that the mother will have to give up her primary custodial rights or to go to court to seek primary custodial rights. The mother continues to collect support and does not contribute any financial contributions to help support the child. I am eagerly asking for assistance as to my options to either: 1) stop child support; 2) receive financial support from the mother; or 3) recommendations for gaining primary custodial rights as the child support will stop once the child turns 18 (i.e., in 8 months). I am truly saddened by the lack of support to assist me regarding this matter and do not understand how the mother can continue to receive child support and not provide any support to the child as well.

    Please help....thanks in advance for your time and assistance.

    I'm in San Antonio and in the same situation. Mother lives in Denver Co, has full custodial rights and receives child support. Mother and daughter agreed that living with me was better and my 12 year old daughter has lived with me here in SA since June 2012. Nothing has officially been changed in regards to child support so although she has been living with me my ex wife has still been legally entitled to child support. I have spent thousands in the past and have nothing else to spend. I need to do something as inexpensive as possible...

    Hello mmmagique! Can you please explain how to file for a modification in child support arrangements due to the change of residence? I spent $40,000 and went through a grueling trial attempting to gain custody of my daughter so I'm not ignorant to the process but would really appreciate some enlightenment on your recommendation. Any measure of help is greatly appreciated!!

    please start your own thread. It gets confusing if you don't.
