PA child support is a joke that's not funny they make it there business to take more than they should from hard working people who try and are still in there children lives and help provide. They are making me pay over one thousand dollars per month in child support for one child which I cannot afford that's over 50% of my income. Who was previously living with me for 3 years and every time I would take the children's mother for child support they denied me I think cause I'm a male and she's a female. But they let her take me for support cause she lied with no documentation about my income and now they have something new called an earning capacity in which everyone on child support is held accountable for. But the big question is what was the child's mother earning capacity and why didn't they put her on child support. Me and the children's mom have two children together one lives with me and the other with her now I can't afford to properly take care of my other child and domestic relations act like they don't understand that.

Child support in Pa is outdated. It ends at 18 or when the child graduates high school. I don't know any 18 year old who just graduated high school that can fully support themselves financially. It should continue until at least 19 and then up to 23 if they're in college full time.

Useless. Men can be thousands of dollars behind, make a $25 payment and still not be held in contempt. Fortunately we don't need the money, but, when the man hasn't even seen the child in 9 years on his own accord. The least they can do is hold them financially obligated.

They didn't for my grandson. His father hasn't paid in years & he found a way to get out of paying and Pa child support agency don't catch on lmao. He quits his job as soon as the employer gives him paperwork to fill out for auto pay support. Now he put everything in his girlfriend's name, she don't work only gets child support. He started his own landscaping business so he didn't have to pay he also told the agency he can't pay because he doesn't have a job, so they cancelled the payments. He also got a lot of money from the stimulus with 5 other kids. now works for her family & it's under the table in another state. How could this agency not catch on

Does a parent pays for child till 18

Nancy mortorff | Sep 27, 2018
D Michelle Mojica Brown | Sep 27, 2018

Generally, but if the child is in school and still living with the custodial parent it can be extended. Also, special needs children have different guidelines. The medical obligation may be different from the financial.

Has anyone heard when the back childsupport from Stimulus checks will be paid out. My girls father got a letter back in April and haven't seen or heard about the payment. It weird that it is taking this long to rec the money.

Kim Shaffer | Sep 26, 2021

If a parent was to get the stimulus check back in March/April but owned back childsupport they were not getting their stimulus check it was going toward their back child support. They rec a letter in the mail saying it was going to back child support. It is just weird that the money hasn't went toward back child support yet.

My son has paid child support for 11 years but don't get to see him or talk him. because the mom will not let him. We live in Mississippi. What can he do?

Sharon Seymore | Sep 26, 2020
Brandy Biekert | Sep 26, 2020

You need to file a custody case with family court. Child custody/visitation and child support are two different things.

They took part of their taxis from the father of my children and supposedly they would send it to me as part of the money I had been behind for almost 7 months and I have not revived how long is the time to wait for their deposit?

Monica “La flaca” Rodriguez | Sep 26, 2020
Brandy Biekert | Sep 26, 2020

First, you need to be sure they actually intercepted the refund. Once they receive the refund, it can take several weeks to process. I've heard people received it within 60 days. Others waited about 6 months. It depends on how and when the other party filed.

Andre Stratton | Sep 26, 2020
Kenyatta Williams | Sep 26, 2020

If it isnt court ordered that you pay child support I believe you can stop on your own, I would maybe call your local child support agency and ask, im sure they would at least be able to provide you with general information given that you aren't in the court system

Brandy Evans | Sep 27, 2019
Brandy Evans | Sep 27, 2019

Hi Wanda! I called first thing Monday morning. The site having issues loading was, sadly, unrelated the non payment issue. I was really hoping that it was the reason for the non payment; but, well, here we go again. But, I digress. The website seems to be fickle with cell phones often. I did mention the issues to Domestic Relations in Montgomery County. Doubt much will come from that convo since the other issue (mentioned above) prevailed. Thanks for answering my question ☺️

How do I transfer my child support from Maryland to PA?

Stephanie Davis | Sep 27, 2018
Wanda Diehl | Sep 27, 2018

I do believe you have to go to the PA domestic relations office to get it all straightened out. And i hope it gets paid every month now because if not domestic relations in Bucks County suck !! Sorry and sad to say

If the courts want to award child support so ignorantly, why dont they follow up to be sure the child is benfitting from the money paid. Lazy bums use the money and often the child doesnt benefit.

Rick harelstad | Sep 27, 2018
A Gilbert | Sep 27, 2019

If the child lives with a parent and has a place to sleep and food and clothes. They don't care where the exact money goes to. The cold is being cared for. If that's not the case the non-custodial parent should get custody instead of worrying about where the exact $ is going. J's.

how much money do you have to pay

Frances Heller | Sep 27, 2017

It depends on the combined income of both parents, and the percentage of custody that each parent has.

What is the percentage of child support for two children

Susan Carovinci | Sep 27, 2017
Brian McGuinness | Sep 27, 2017

They add up both incomes, then use a table to determine what a child needs each month based on their parents combined incomes. Each parent is responsible for a percentage of that number. The percentage that each parent pats depends on their percentage of custody, and their percentage of income.
