Second Families / When parents re-marry
Jan 29, 2008, 02:15:31 PM
All,
      What happens if the custodial parent re-marries?  Or the non-custodial parent re-marries (not back to each other of course) and they have new families now, how if at all does that affect payment amounts?

Father's Issues / IRS refund offset
Jan 29, 2008, 02:04:54 PM
I am a man who had a son 16 years ago, for the fist 7 years of his life I was his father.  His mother and I divorced and she has custody, after the divorce I paid Child Support for the first year.  I then separated from the military and my pay decreased, unfortunately I fell behind on some payments.  Last year the IRS offset my refund due to arrears, which I completely understand and accept.  God has blessed me with a new job that pays better and I can now afford to pay my child support, even a little more to catch up!  My dilemma is, my refund will be offset again this year.  I have called Child Support Services of California (where my son lives) to request the offset be removed, they referred me to the IRS.  I have spoken to the IRS on several occasions, they refer me back to CSS of California.  I am in the process of filing bankruptcy (not to avoid paying child support), I have also fallen behind on my mortgage (close to foreclosure!).  It seems soo unfair for some one who has fallen on hard times not to be able to get ANY help from ANYWHERE!  I want to do the right thing!  I am ready and able to pay now!  I just need a little hand getting on my feet, the refund would save my house.  Is there anyone out there that can help me?  Lead me in the right direction on how to prevent my refund from being offset? Thank you.
