My wife and I was married back in 2005. We split up in 2010. We are now getting a divorce. The final hearing is in couple weeks. We had nothing together except a child. On the divorce forms, I gave her full custody with me having her 2-3 times a week. But now she have been living with me since August of 2015. Could I get child support from her? She said she is going to get disability but she been saying this for over two years.
Why do you have your wife back living with you? If you are doing that, then you are voluntarily taking on the responsibility and would not in all likelihood be paying spousal support as well. Assuming the child then is ALSO living with you and you are paying expenses, child support would be doubtful. If ordered, you could always have your ex-wife pay it back to you or move out of your house.
