Do You Pay Child Support In D.r
I am not an expert, but common sense says you are still liable to pay. However, I don't believe they will chase you down in the DR. They'll probably catch you when re-entering the country, if the child's mother has issued a warrant.davoucci19 said:Iwas wondering if when you move to d.r from the states and your child lives in the states does the goverment still gets you for child support ? even if your overseas
BTW, I'm hoping you were asking theoretically. The DR doesn't need anymore deadbeat Dad's.
I was curious about it had a conversation with my best friend and she told me her baby's daddy is moving to D.R and she asked me about it and I didnt know the answer.....now of course common sense will tell me when they come back of course they will have an issue but my question is while they are there..if it also applies.... :squareeyerellosk said:

Since they are now at 100% they can't have more unless the deadbeats go back to the same girls and impregnate them a second (third, fourth) time.
They could....
I am in that situation myself. Let me start by saying that you should pay child support regardless of where in the globe you are.
Having said that.
1) If you have any accounts in the states and your ex is smart enough, she could have the state attorney freeze you accounts there.
2) They cannot touch your assets overseas, but she could have the child support increased if she finds out how much you have overseas. That only applies if you are rich and she can afford an international private eye.
3) Based on point 2. If you work here you could have some of your income invested locally or sent to the Cayman Islands (if you don't trust local banks) and petition the court to reduce your child support based on reduced income levels (whatever she sees going into your US bank accounts).
Whatever your situation you should still pay child support and not only that, but save for your children's college education.
The previous points might sound like a way to cheat your ex out of child support but is not in the case that she/he spend that moeny on other things but your kids, and then it is up to you to save for their future.
Well, I am proyecting my personal stituation here.
In any case, here is some information you might find useful.

In some states, if the father relocates to another state and his salary is less than before, he can petition for a reduction. But if he quits his high-paying salary in NY, just so he can pack bags in Wisconsin, the court will most likely reject it. Also, if the father voluntarily stops paying, there's a word called "RETROACTIVE" that will haunt him.
thats true
I dont think he is moving back but he you never know....according to her he told her it is permanent.....

True!
he has a set amount that is withdrawn from his pay check...and he said he is goign to set up an amount with her that he can afford to send. but I told her that if he decides to stop paying then that is it all she can do is complain...but the state wont be able to do anything until he gets back

Yes they can!
If he becomes seriously delinquent and the Judge feels that he's trying to duck the payments, the judge will issue a warrant for his arrest and the local Dominican authorities can arrest him. That is how badly the U.S. want to extradite him. Never know :bandit:davoucci19 said:
All she has to do is
1) locate him
2) have a local lawyer set up a complaint at the local court
3) file the US divorce papers stipulating the amount to be paid and the dates it is due.
4) BINGO, his a$$ is in deep schitt. He will be hauled into court and he will have to cough up the money.
5) He can request a reduction of payments
HB Seen all of this, so tell her to get prepared.
