Child Support Payment Central

Question: Can/will the US extradite a US Citizen from Central/South America for back child support? I have a friend of a friend who had an agreement with his ex-Wife on a reduced child support agreement in which he allowed his kids to be taken out of state after their Divorce based on that agreement. She has since married/divorced over the last 10 years and is now back at him for "rate card" payments. He's loaded with debt and it would be next to impossible to make the $3K/mth payments which is what the matrix would have him pay. (That's 120% of his Net today) He has been paying $1500 a month to date. He's tried negotiation with his ex both with and without atty's to no avail... He's now desperate, and while he loves his kids, is considering a jump to try to get free... My question is this... Would the US reach out of the country to extradite for support under such circumstance? Any differences between Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Columbia, etc? What are the chances of him getting citizenship elsewhere?

Answer: He might get out but he will be arrested if he tries to re-enter the USA. That is some kind of friend you have there. He should be ashamed of himself. He will face his judgement day.

Question: Are there programs or organizations for fathers who can't afford attorneys? I live in california, on the Central coast. I have been representing myself in a custody matter for 2 years now. I can't afford to drop 3000 dollars at once, due to child support paying her attorney, court fees and other things. So I've been representing myself. Big mistake. I know I can win this case, and it would be in the best interest of my son, but I either seem to will out the wrong forms say the wrong thing, and get stuck spending more money. So I need to get an attorney, but I can't afford one? So does anyone know of any programs that either 1, help fathers pay for attorneys,2 will hire an attorney and I do a payment plan, 3 or fights for fathers rights. I've looked over and over the internet, and I'm getting more and more confused, I've tried pre-paid legal, and well its really hasn't helped. So if anyone can help me I would appreciate it.

Answer: Try some of the "Father's Rights" people, as described in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fathers'_ri…

Answer: You will not get a passport if you owe arrears in child support. You must pay every last cent of it if you want a passport. If your money situation has changed, you can go see and judge and work out something.

Question: Have you read: Advice to young men: Do not marry, do not have children?? Advice to young men: Do not marry, do not have children ENTERSTAGERIGHT ^ | 11/12/2007 | Stephen Baskerville Posted on Tuesday, November 13, 2007 7:08:30 AM by Responsibility2nd Marriage is a foundation of civilized life. No advanced civilization has ever existed without the married, two-parent family. Those who argue that our civilization needs healthy marriages to survive are not exaggerating. And yet I cannot, in good conscience, urge young men to marry today. For many men (and some women), marriage has become nothing less than a one-way ticket to jail. Even the New York Times has reported on how easily "the divorce court leads to a jail cell," mostly for men. In fact, if I have one urgent piece of practical advice for young men today it is this: Do not marry and do not have children. Spreading this message may also, in the long run, be the most effective method of saving marriage as an institution. For until we understand that the principal threat to marriage today is not cultural but political, and that it comes not from homosexuals but from heterosexuals, we will never reverse the decline of marriage. The main destroyer of marriage, it should be obvious, is divorce. Michael McManus of Marriage Savers points out that "divorce is a far more grievous blow to marriage than today's challenge by gays." The central problem is the divorce laws. It is well known that half of all marriages end in divorce. But widespread misconceptions lead many to believe it cannot happen to them. Many conscientious people think they will never be divorced because they do not believe in it. In fact, it is likely to happen to you whether you wish it or not. First, you do not have to agree to the divorce or commit any legal transgression. Under "no-fault" divorce laws, your spouse can divorce you unilaterally without giving any reasons. The judge will then grant the divorce automatically without any questions. But further, not only does your spouse incur no penalty for breaking faith; she can actually profit enormously. Simply by filing for divorce, your spouse can take everything you have, also without giving any reasons. First, she will almost certainly get automatic and sole custody of your children and exclude you from them, without having to show that you have done anything wrong. Then any unauthorized contact with your children is a crime. Yes, for seeing your own children you will be subject to arrest. There is no burden of proof on the court to justify why they are seizing control of your children and allowing your spouse to forcibly keep you from them. The burden of proof (and the financial burden) is on you to show why you should be allowed to see your children. The divorce industry thus makes it very attractive for your spouse to divorce you and take your children. (All this earns money for lawyers whose bar associations control the careers of judges.) While property divisions and spousal support certainly favor women, the largest windfall comes through the children. With custody, she can then demand "child support" that may amount to half, two-thirds, or more of your income. (The amount is set by committees consisting of feminists, lawyers, and enforcement agents – all of whom have a vested interest in setting the payments as high as possible.) She may spend it however she wishes. You pay the taxes on it, but she gets the tax deduction. You could easily be left with monthly income of a few hundreds dollars and be forced to move in with relatives or sleep in your car. Once you have sold everything you own, borrowed from relatives, and maximized your credit cards, they then call you a "deadbeat dad" and take you away in handcuffs. You are told you have "abandoned" your children and incarcerated without trial. Evidence indicates that, as men discover all this, they have already begun an impromptu marriage "strike": refusing to marry or start families, knowing they can be criminalized if their wife files for divorce. "Have anti-father family court policies led to a men's marriage strike?" ask Glenn Sacks and Dianna Thompson in the Philadelphia Enquirer. In Britain, fathers tour university campuses warning young men not to start families. In his book, From Courtship to Courtroom, Attorney Jed Abraham concludes that the only protection for men to avoid losing their children and everything else is not to start families in the first place. Is it wise to disseminate such advice? If people stop marrying, what will become of the family and our civilization? Marriage is already all but dead, legally speaking, and divorce is the principal reason. The fall in the Western birth rate is directly connected with divorce law. It is also likely that same-sex marriage is being demanded only because of how heterosexuals have already debased marriage through divorce law. "The world of no-strings heterosexual hookups and 50% divorce rates preceded gay marriage," advocate Andrew Sullivan points out. "All homosexuals are saying...is that, under the current definition, there's no reason to exclude us. If you want to return straight marriage to the 1950s, go ahead. But until you do, the exclusion of gays is simply an anomaly – and a denial of basic civil equality." We will not restore marriage by burying our heads in the sand; nor simply by preaching to young people to marry, as the Bush administration's government therapy programs now do. The way to restore marriage as an institution in which young people can place their trust, their children, and their lives is to make it an enforceable contract. We urgently need a national debate about divorce, child custody, and the terms under which the government can forcibly sunder the bonds between parents and their children. We owe it to future generations, if there are to be any. Stephen Baskerville, Ph.D., is assistant professor of government at Patrick Henry College and President of the American Coalition for Fathers and Children Is that you really feel next? Not biased at all are you? Valerie: I will take your word for it since you have no FACTS to back you up. These women that go to college. Who gives them finacial support? If it is their fathers.....OMG! Fathers are MEN!!!! Dear God! Learning: Women tend to change to witches after marriage.

Answer: Hate to say it, but definitely agree. My advice to any young man is DO NOT GET MARRIED, DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN. You are only setting yourself up for heartache and financial ruin. I am the one who was the single parent (Dad). Wouldn't trade my boy for anything or anyone..but...he deserved a better life than I alone was able to provide for him.

Question: Serious Answers Only: Why do you, or don't you, support Obama's tax cut policy? Yes I know most answers to this will be ranting and raving, insults, etc. But for those of us looking for serious intellectual explorations into the issue, lets continue: I support the Obama tax cuts, but more out of necessity than anything else. Our deficit is sky rocketing. We can point finger at Obama's stimulus, or Bush's wars, it doesn't matter. Four of the last five of the last President's contributed to the deficit, GW Bush, Obama, and Reagan the most. G.H. Bush started to put austerity measures into place, and way largely voted out of office. CLinton was able to start reducing the debt, but he was also aided by a major technology boom that led to substantial growth. Point is, we have a lot of debt and several different Presidents have contributed to it. We can argue the merits of their contributions, and a lot of points could be made, but either way those debts needs to be paid. I would rather see the wealthy give up a few extra dollars, while still being able to afford an affluent life style, than a struggling middle class family, barely able to make mortgage payments and struggling to put their children into college. Honestly, it might not be fair, but has it been fair for many of the families who have lost their homes and jobs in the last few years? No, life's not fair, and reality is tough. At the same time, whether we want to admit it or not, we all do enjoy certain things given to us by the Government that the private markets could never provide. Our public university system is the best in the world and has contributed greatly to our national economy, allowing millions to gain an affordable education. Research in the Internet and PC was carried out for decades, supported by government funds, long before they became profitable enterprises. I don't believe in robbing from the rich to give to the lazy, and I fully believe that hard work needs to be restored as the central driving force of our economy. Still the challenges we face are pressing, and the choices we have to make will be tough.

Answer: First of all, I do not TRUST President Parsley when he promises a tax cut. I do not believe he will actually give one, at least not effectively one. Like the promise about cutting taxes on 90% of the taxpayers. Never materialized, why? Cuz of all the limitations and conditions on it that effectively negates it. What the right hand giveth, the left hand taketh away. Secondly, I will support ANY and ALL tax cuts... PERIOD... no matter who is proposing or sponsoring it. My belief, however is point 1, above... I do not believe one will actually materialize. Lastly, but certainly NOT the least... I quote the Nobel prize wining economist, Milton Friedman... I think the government solution to a problem is usually as bad as the problem and very often makes the problem worse. One of the great mistakes is to judge policies and programs by their intentions rather than their results. A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither. A society that puts freedom before equality will get a high degree of both. === And finally, his BEST quote for this question... If a tax cut increases government revenues, you haven't cut taxes enough. 1. REPEAL the 16th Amendment!! 2. DISBAND The FED! 3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dc_-L4fyL… Republican since before she was born… and PROUD of it.

Answer: Yes there is...you need to call your county courthouse and for legal aid...this is a service that provides attorneys and legal advice, and should cost less...but of course you may not get as good a lawyer as you could in the private sector...Good luck!
