He was paying $338.00 in child support, until I found out he was lying about his income. I then asked him to help split the cost of my son's driving lessons and he had a fit. So I filed for a modification, so I never had to go through that ugliness again. The court found he made $10,235.19 a month and they ordered him to pay $1267.00. He asked for a HARDSHIP HEARING AND WAS DENIED! Then came the emails to my son asking for him to come live with him for six months out of the year (so he didn't have to pay child support) mind you he ONLY asked to see him 3 times a year and we live 5 hours away and the flight costs $100.00. When I put my foot down and said, lets try regular visition first before he comes and lives there, he stopped calling my son and hasn't asked to see him the day he was court ordered to increase child support. After 4 months of not receiving the correct amount I finally called his place of employment only to find out his income went from $10,235.19 to $2142.00, yet he olds the same position? I believe he is setting the stage for voluntary underemployment. What can i do to protect my son? This was the money I was using for his college, since the ex doesn't have to pay anything toward that in the State of Texas! My ex for the last 10 years has made 10K a month.
