Steps to organize child support after separation
After divorce, both parents are concerned about how to take care of the child. That’s where child custody agreements come into play. Here are the steps that you will need to follow in order to organize child support after your separation with the partner.
To begin with, you need to go ahead and talk to the other parent. In most of the instances, you will be able to come up with a mutual agreement. This mutual agreement will be in a position to benefit both parties at the end of the day. All you have to do is to talk to the other parent and come up with a common plan on how to take care of needs that would arise when taking care of the child. Along with that, it is recommended for you to go ahead with informal mediation as well. You will be able to get the assistance of a third party and make sure that your agreement is crafted with fair terms and conditions for both parties at the end of the day.
Along with that, you need to focus on legal support as well. If your partner refuses to pay, you will need to get the assistance of a family law court and make sure that you get appropriate support as needed to request the other party to make payments legally. Then you need to focus on receiving child support payments on a timely manner. The payment will be obtained from the non-custodial parent and it will be paid to the Department of Child Support Services. Then the DCSS will provide you with that paycheck.
