Confused About County DCSS Collection
The child upon whom I pay support turns 18 in late June 2007, so I asked the county DCSS in California when my last payment is supposed to be, because I mail 12 post-dated checks from abroad each year, which they cash each month. Oddly enough, the county DCSS told me that they have orders not to collect on my account beyond 1 Feb 2007, and that any money I send to them comes back to me or goes to arrears (there are no arrears). That is about 3-4 months before the child turns 18. What is the deal with this? I can hardly believe that my monthly support stops short of the child's 18th birthday. Do I send the money instead directly to the child's mother? Because that's what I am planning on doing. The last thing I want is for the family law court judge to be summoning me before his bench asking me why I stopped paying a few months short of the time of the child reaching majority. A child is a minor until the 18th b'day in California, right? And the CA Family Code pretty much says I have to support the "minor" child. Anyone want to be a lawyer here? Thanks. |
