Question NCP Child Support

I currently paying child support for one child and in the child support order states I have to pay 50% of all medical cost not covered under the medical insurance that I provide. My insurance coverage has two options and she chose the one that lets her pick a HMO, instead of utilizing the contracted doctor's under the plan. Do I have the position to mandate her to utilize the contracted doctor instead of the HMO she selected?

You have a position to force a selection of the most economical provider.

Unfortunately, that is a loophole you will probably have to close with a "Motion to Clarify Final Judgment." and a related hearing.

Default Thank you

Thank you for the info. Also, I was wondering. She is giving me 10 days to make my portion of the payments. I do not feel that is adequate time. So, I have been paying them at 30 days. Also, there is nothing in my child support order that stays the time frame to make payments. Please advise.

thank you.

If there is no provision, the time frame is anything that is "reasonable." I would say 30 days is reasonable.

Default Child Support Modification

I am currently in the process of getting ready to retire from the military and will be putting in for a modification of my child support payment due to my military retirement check. If I get employment after this modification is made. Will the Child Support Agency submit for a modification of child support for that income or will they let stay at the modification amount?

I was original advised, that the custodial parent does not have to report income changes. Only the NCP (Person paying childsupport) has to report income changes.

Please advise.

Child Support Agencies are not that snappy

No one will automatically pick up on an income change. It appears to happen on more of a random basis.
