Is the support paid in such a way that each parent pays their respective support amount to the other parent each month OR does the parent who's support amount is higher (difference in incomes) pay the difference in amounts to the other?

Currently both kids live with mother, however son wants to live with father.  Trying to work out the details now and just want to see what to expect!

BM turned H into her local DCSE.  It was also turned in to the original state which wrote the order and then to our state as well.  

H is behind by a significant amount due to various things that happened last year...  a car theft, surgery, problems with the kids in our household (both are special needs) etc.  

The problem is that BM mislead DCSE to believe that H owes about $7000 more than he actually does.  She is not including money that she received from 9-2000 through roughly 8-2001.  Fortunately I have kept pretty thorough records and have all the check numbers available, carbons and statements.  

Since she is knowingly omitting this information and it could be detrimental to H's employment (security clearance) can she be charged with fraud?

I am guessing that because he does in fact owe back support that they will not consider her offense to be a big deal and look the other way.  Our main concern is getting the proper amount set...don't have a problem with paying what is owed, we just want that number to be correct!

My husband is behind in his support.  We are aware of it and don't deny that his ex is owed that money.  We ran into hard times and are struggling to catch up.

HOWEVER, she filed through CSE in one state, we contacted them to straighten out an accounting error (she is neglecting to claim roughly 9 months of payments that she received), and soon after we received papers from the circuit court where we live where the order has been registered here.  Today, we received a letter from HER state again stating that either party can review CS for increase/decrease?  

It sounds like she is invloving both states?  We assume that the one registered here is the one we need to deal with, is that correct?  Is there anything we can do regarding her claiming more than she is owed?  He is planning to request a hearing to straighten out the accountung, but can anything be done to her for a false claim?

DH is the NCP, kids are currently with us for his summer parenting time.  Current order is joint legal/joint physical.  They are due to return to the BM's house mid-August.  

Her boyfriend is due in court tomorrow for a hearing Re: Rent and Possession (eviction hearing).  BM is not a party to the case as it seems her name and her 3 children (two are DH's, one is her now ex-husband's) are not on the lease agreement.  We do not believe that the boyfriend will show up at the court hearing as he has an outstanding warrant (failed to appear at traffic court).  

If the landlord receives a judgment for rent and possession, do we have sufficient grounds to ask the court for temporary custody?  We do have an attorney already as DH just finished with a modification in May.  She has been made aware of the situation.  

BM lives in MO, we are in FL.
