Does anyone know if you have to pay Health care as part of Child support??
Question:
Or is this on the court orders? Because Im paying Health care and Full child support when she has a better job with a better Health care plan??
Thanks for any Help
It mostly depends on the judge. You both have to fill out papers that ask about the costs of insurance available and the wages you make. Then they deceide what ratio the non custodial parent should pay to support the child.
I would depend what your court order says. Check with your local court house to see if they have help for people with out an attorney or maybe the Department of Child Support Services in your town.
It depends on the state you're in and the laws. My paternity suit states whoever has the best insurance has to cover my daughter - which is me. He, in turn, has to pay half of what it costs me to insure her and half of all medical bills and prescriptions not covered by insurance.
I don't think you have to provide health care as a part of your child support, it usually goes by who's job provides better coverage. I don't understand why she wouldn't want to use her coverage if its a better plan
you can always request a hearing to address that... i would.
yes health care/health insurance is part of taking care of your child. trust me when i say its A LOT CHEAPER then paying for the medical costs...
call your caseworker and and request a hearing for review because of this.
