How does relocation affect payments?
I pay child support on my own with no involvment of the courts, but I
suspect that at anytime, the CP can decide to take me to court since she has made the threat several times for things such as me mailing her a check as oppsoed to depositing it into her account and for allowing both daughters to meet. Anyway, I live in NY and plan to relocate to Florida. If she takes me to court while I live in FL, will FL laws apply or will NY laws apply? |

My BIL's ex tried to have her PA order transferred to FL after my BIL moved there because the guidelines are higher--much higher. FL refused to take the case. My BIL was never in arrears so there were no enforcement issues. |

However, if you were not married to the child's mother at the time the child was conceived, or if you never formally acknowledged paternity by signing a voluntary declaration of paternity document, the laws of her state will not apply until paternity is formally established. |
