New Jersey Child Support Legal Questions

Your matter raises several issues that are better discussed in a consultation with a family law attorney.  For instance, there may be jurisdictional issues and the need to register your Judgment of Divorce, any Orders and/or the instant Consent Order in New Jersey. Also, the scenario you set forth does not address whether or not your child's mother would come to New Jersey with your child. In New Jersey, child support is a child's right, not either parents'.  A custodial parent brings a complaint on behalf of a child.  Child support is paid to the custodial parent because children do not have the legal capacity to manage their own affairs.  Because child support is a right of the child, in New Jersey, the right to child support cannot be waived by a custodial parent.  If your child's mother comes to New Jersey with your child and files an action for child support, she will need to establish that New Jersey is the appropriate jurisdiction to address this matter and you may want to have the Judgment of Divorce and Orders that were entered in India registered in New Jersey to support your argument that the court in New Jersey enforce the consent agreement and order that were entered into in India.   To protect your interests, you may consider consulting with an attorney in India about the consent agreement. There are a number of nuances to your question that can be better addressed in a consultation.  The attorneys at Weinberger Law Group offer a free initial consultation.  Call today to schedule your appointment....

Prior to changing the children's health insurance, you may want to ascertain whether the children's doctors, treatment, etc. will be covered under the new plan.  You may also want to discuss the change with your children's other parent prior to making the switch. If you suddenly change the children's health insurance and your children's other parent does not agree with your decision, your children's other parent may file a motion with the court requesting any number of relief. The child support guidelines calculation makes an adjustment for the cost of the premium payment of the children's health insurance. If the cost of the children's premium payment has decreased, it may be necessary to prepare a new child support guideline worksheet. The child support award also includes the first $250 of unreimbursed medical expenses per child, per year.  The parent receiving support is responsible for paying the first $250 per child per year of unreimbursed medical expenses.  Thereafter, unreimbursed expenses may be paid by both parents. Prior to changing the children's health insurance, you may want to consult with a family law attorney. Prior to seeking a modification of the child support guidelines, you may want to consider the impact of a modification on the support award, including any increase or decrease in your income or the other parent's income. The attorneys at Weinberger Law Group offer a free initial consultation. The attorneys at Weinberger Law Group are happy to discuss your options with you, strategize with you regarding how best to make the switch in health insurance, and prepare child support guidelines worksheets for you so you can anticipate what impact the change in the children's premium health insurance payment and possible change to your or the other parent's income will impact the support award. Call (855) 548-1544 to schedule your free initial consultation....

A dismissal "with prejudice" essentially means that the court considered the application, the reasons presented and found that, based on the merits, the application should be dismissed.  A dismissal "with prejudice" means that the issues raised have already been decided.  The litigant whose claims were dismissed is barred from attempting to revive the same issues in a future application to the court....

  I have seen your question.   My name is David Salvaggio.  I have more than 35 years of legal experience and head a law firm that devotes its practice exclusively to New Jersey Divorce and Family Law matters.  Please feel free to take a look at our Firm Website (www.salvaggiolaw.com) for further information about my firm.    In New Jersey, a person who wants a child support modification must demonstrate to the Court that there have been sufficient "changed circumstances" that justify the modification.  Because each application is decided on its own unique facts and there is no "formula" in New Jersey for determining when that has happened, a good lawyer will not be able to answer your question without first meeting with you and getting a lot more facts.      Your question does not specify the town in which you live.  My firm's offices are located in Morristown, NJ (Morris County).  We handle cases in all of the counties in northern and central New Jersey, including not only Morris County but also Somerset, Hunterdon, Sussex, Warren, Passaic, Bergen, Hudson, Middlesex and Monmouth counties.   If you live in one of those counties, please call my office (973-455-1220) and speak to the firm’s Client Intake Coordinator Dara Vanderhoof.  I will be happy to have a brief phone call with you--at no charge of course--to get more facts.   ...

It sounds like the counterclaimant is seeking a retroactive modification (decrease) of child support and therefore a credit toward the arrears based on a change in the parenting time schedule some time ago.  You have several arguments that you can bring to the court's attention to aid the court in making a determination in your favor, including, but not limited to, the fact that your 17 year old continued to reside with you during those 20 months and you remained the child's parent of primary residence or primary residential custodian during that time.  During those 20 months, you still had to maintain a room for your child; have heat, electric and water for your child; have food for your child; buy clothes for your child; pay school fees for your child; and more. The counterclaimant's child support obligation to you during that time did not stop.  You may also rely on New Jersey court rules and statutes to argue that the court should not modify child support prior to the date that you filed your application. Generally, when a motion to modify child support is made, New Jersey's "anti-retroactivity statute" only allows a modification in child support retroactive to the date that the motion was filed.  Hence, another argument is that if the counterclaimant wanted a modification of child support back then, s/he should have filed an application back then.  At this point, you may argue, the "anti-retroactivity statute" prevents the court from modifying child support prior to the date you filed your motion.  Another argument is the doctrine of laches, which essentially means too much time has passed now and any retroactive modification of child support would be prejudicial and inequitable to you. There may be other arguments available to you depending on the unique circumstances of your matter.  The attorneys at Weinberger Law Group offer a free one-hour initial consultation and are happy to discuss your options with you.  Call today to schedule your free consultation.  You may also find the below websites to be informative: http://www.weinbergerlawgroup.com/children-parenting/child-support/modifications-amendments.aspx http://www.weinbergerlawgroup.com/children-parenting/child-support/enforcement-recovery.aspx  ...

Corolyn, One of the things which reduces child support is non-custodial parent's cost of providing health insurance coverage for the children.  So--yes--if ex husband will still have this coverage but does not need to pay anything for it, that should cause the amount of his child support to increase somewhat. Of course, that presumes that nothing else has changed (his income, your income, the amount of his overnight parenting time etc.) You say that right now his child support is $19 per week.  That seems very low, given that he has been a police officer.   I think that you should set up a meeting with a lawyer who has many years of legal experience and who devotes his or her entire practice to New Jersey Family Law matters.  At that meeting, you can go over your situation in detail with that attorney, get educated answers to your questions, and obtain expert guidance as to the best course of action. I have more than 35 years of legal experience and head a Morristown law firm which practices exclusively Familly Law.  Please feel free to take a look at our Firm Website (www.salvaggiolaw.com) for further information about my firm.  ...

Whether or not the child is emancipated and therefore the parents relieved of the duty to support the child, depends on the facts of the case.  The issue is fact-sensitive and the essential inquiry is whether the child has moved "beyond the sphere of influence and responsibility exercised by a parent and obtained an independent status of her own."  The child's age and the fact that the child has a child of her own are important facts to consider; however, they are not the only important facts to consider.  Other facts to consider include whether or not the child is attending college full time, on an uninterrupted basis, the grades the child is earning in college, and others.

In NJ, a passport application can be denied if the non-custodial parent owes past due child support of $2,500 or more. In NJ, generally, the arrears will need to be paid in full before the passport restriction will be removed.  If your child support arrears never exceeded $2,500 or if travel is required for your employment, you can contest the decision for your passport to be denied.

According to the NJ Department of Human services (I provide the website link below), if you need financial help, either temporarily or in addition to child support, Work First New Jersey (WFNJ) offers eligible families financial help and other support services such as child care, Medicaid and NJ SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits, which you indicate you are presently receiving. The link is: http://www.njchildsupport.org/Services-Programs/Custodial-Parents/Financial-assistance.aspx It may be possible to continue to receive child care, Medicaid and/or SNAP benefits while receiving child support.  It is my understanding that in making the determination of continued eligibility for child care, Medicaid and SNAP benefits, the Board of Social Services will consider a number of factors, including but not limited to your income.  If your child's father has health insurance, the court may require him to provide health insurance for the child rather than the State.  The website link I pasted above provides the link to the child support application. Before filing an application for child support with the court, you would benefit from information specific to your case and an answer to your question from a staff member at the Board of Social Services. According to the website I provided above, for more information, you may contact your county's Board of Social Services office, visit the WFNJ website or call the WFNJ Hotline at 1-800-792-9773. A list of the contact iniformation, addresses and hours of each county's Board of Social Services office is provided at the following web address: http://www.nj.gov/humanservices/dfd/programs/njsnap/cwa/ The WFNJ website is: http://www.state.nj.us/humanservices/dfd/programs/workfirstnj/ Finally, you may want to check with your county's Board of Social Services office about whether or not the office intends to sue your child's father for reimbursement of any financial assistance paid to you.  ...

She can try to file a missing person report, but it won't go anywhere. The more important question is whether your brother has any obligations to his former wife (or children, if any) which he is not fulfilling, such as support or visitation. If your brother has no obligations to her and they didn't have children, then he doesn't have much to worry about. The same goes if he has obligations but he is fulfilling them. Her only real remedy is to go to Family Court by filing a post-divorce motion. And she will have to explain to a judge why your brother's address is so important. Maybe the explantion will be good; maybe it won't. But it will have to be based on something. By the way, if she is harassing you or any of your family members, file a police report.

I have seen your question.

Typically, the Assessment lasts about an hour.  The cost is $350. Your question does not specify the town in which you live.  My firm's offices are located in Morristown, NJ (Morris County).  We handle cases in all of the counties in northern and central New Jersey, including not only Morris County but also Somerset, Hunterdon, Sussex, Warren, Passaic, Bergen, Hudson, Middlesex and Monmouth counties.

I have seen your question.

Please feel free to take a look at our Firm Website (www.salvaggiolaw.com) for further information about my firm. The answer to your question is: Unless there are some extenuating circumstances, you should be able to apply to the court to terminate your child support obligation for your daughter.  If your daughter is not your only child with this mother, and the other child(ren) are not emancipated yet, it gets somewhat more complicated because you still owe child support for the unemancipated child(ren) and the amount of that child support may be different than you think that it would be. In addition, the court may adjust the amount of child support for the other child(ren) because of financial changes that have taken place since the original amount of the child support was set.   It is also important to keep in mind that, although New Jersey law generally provides that child support cannot be reduced retroactively (in other words, the effective date of the reduction cannot be before the filing date of the Motion), that is not true if you can demonstrate to the court that the child became emancipated as of an earlier date.  As you can see, there are a lot of things to take into consideration.  Therefore, unless you have a very "cut and dry" situation (only one child, clear emancipation), I think that it is essential that you obtain the assistance of a very experienced lawyer who devotes his/her entire practice to Family Law.  Even if this is your only child, I still recommend that you at least have a meeting with a very experienced lawyer who devotes his/her entire practice to Family Law, to get advice.  I would be happy to have a meeting with you, to get more facts, answer your questions and provide you with guidance.  That meeting is called an Assessment, and it is much more than the "free" consultations that are offered by many lawyers.  I believe that the value you get from that meeting will exceed the cost of the Assessment.  Your question does not specify the town in which you live.  My firm's offices are located in Morristown, NJ (Morris County).  We handle cases in all of the counties in northern and central New Jersey, including not only Morris County but also Somerset, Hunterdon, Sussex, Warren, Passaic, Bergen, Hudson, Middlesex and Monmouth counties.

Please feel free to take a look at our Firm Website (www.salvaggiolaw.com) for further information about my firm.  I am not sure exactly what you mean when you say that you have a lawyer. In order to properly answer your question, I would need to know whether you signed a written retainer agreement with the lawyer, whether you paid him any money, and whether he has filed anything with the court (not just for child support). If he has not filed anything with the court, you could file for child support yourself.  (Of course, if you have paid the lawyer any money for the child support application, you should request a refund). As I am sure that you know, you have a much greater chance of success if you have a lawyer. What people don't realize is that, even know they can save money without a lawyer, they will often lose more money if they don't do things right. Therefore, in most cases, a lawyer is a good "investment." I recommend that you at least borrow enough money for what we call an Assessment, in which I will go over your situation in detail, answer your questions, and give you guidance as to the best course of action. Typically, the Assessment lasts about an hour.  The cost is $425.   Your question does not specify the town in which you live.  My firm's offices are located in Morristown, NJ (Morris County).  We handle cases in all of the counties in northern and central New Jersey, including not only Morris County but also Somerset, Hunterdon, Sussex, Warren, Passaic, Bergen, Hudson, Middlesex and Monmouth counties.
