When I worked at my aunt and uncle's party store, there was a older lady, whose child was grow and in his 30s. She was coming to cash child support checks, because the state had finally caught up with him. You know, I am split on the matter. I don't receive child support. I am owed approx. $10,000. I don't ever expect to see it. In my case, if he would just sign off parental rights and disappear, I would waive the $10,000 he owes me. hey sunshine, but as Quiet mentioned, is the custodial parent allowed/able to forgive debt? Are people aware that just because your name appears on a child birth certificate, does not give you parental right, but does give you financial obligation? According to the State of Michigan, if paternity has been established that equates to both parenting time rights and financial rights. I do believe that I can forgive his debt to me, but he will still owe the state money. (If I recall correctly, in that State of Michigan there is a one time forgiveness thingy.) |

Statute of Limitations to enforce a child support order.
None, but to bar stale claims, "laches" may apply. Statute of Limitations to establish paternity: 4 years after the child's 18th birthday. http://www.child-support-collections.com/statutes/florida.html has each state listed |

it would depend on state statutes each state has time limits on how long a debt is kept on the books some also think since the child is now an adult the money should go to the child wrong it goes to the mother unless they were receiving public assistance if that is the case the state takes what they feel is owed them and if there is any left then the mother get that amount but i do not know if child support has a time of forgiveness or not hey sunshine, good point. 
Does anyone know if child support has a statute of limitations??? |

Owing a debt is owing a debt... 50k? this guy should be in prison working it off in my opinion. that number seems awfully low to me anyway if this person only paid support for six to ten months... they both agreed on an amt - much lower than the court ordered amount to enable man to pay w/o hardship. Ques, how would he work it off if he's placed in prison? Paying with out hardship is the same as enabling mediocrity... I do not believe we should reinforce failure with the reward, he should be working harder. My Father and Mother worked themselves to the bone as I grew up staying together through think and thin. My Father worked as a Guard at a local jail and as a Deputy Sheriff while my Mother worked as a buyer for a local retailer. Paying with out hardship... There are such things as work programs and plenty of men whom owe much less that are currently working it off in prison now. Oh sunshine, I'm with you, but my question is still unanswered. how does placing the debtor in jail, work of his debt? **keep in mind the woman never utilized government assistance** |

What is the work program? How does placing man in jail bring her financial relief and reduce his debt? Does the state pay her for his incarceration? Keep in mind - financial assistance was not used by woman/child. |

Ques - why does man owe state? State Health Insurance and such! But Tanya that's my point No state, federal or governmental help/assistance was used by the woman/child. Woman worked hard, sacrificed a lot, but never received financial assistance. Should man still owe for services not utilized by woman/child? |

Should man still owe for services not utilized by woman/child? if the state did not pay out the state should not be collecting any support should go to the person owed if you asked the state to enforce the order then it may get a bit touchy could be kinda like domestic violence once you call for help the state takes over and you have no say as to what happens next but this is just speculation and opinion |

Woman worked hard, sacrificed a lot, but never received financial assistance. Should man still owe for services not utilized by woman/child? According to most states, he is owes for the cost of care for the child, regardless of State intervention. (Unless, an out of court agreement was made, but in divorce, most couples have to make an agreement somewhere. It is a comtempt on the court to not follow that and the agreement must be upheld. She might be able to waive it, depending on the state.) |

well the govt is slow that is for sure
but i am not sure she can stop it best thing i could suggest if she wants to would be to go to the district attorney and ask how to stop it or even the attorney general of the state the order is based in |
