Quote: i think I've done a not so good job explaining the circumstances. here's how it goes: Bio mom and my husband started here in MO, where daughter(dd) was born. They had problems, broke up and husband and I got together when dd was 2(dd stayed living with her mom). the mom then moved...

Quote: well, I'm going the cheap route for now. The agencies I'm dealing with now aren't going to cost me anything. The bio mom is commiting a crime, in fact, I read yesterday that in MO a non-custodial parent who is deliquent of 12 aggregate monthly payments(in this case it's a LOT more than...

Quote: So essentially CA will be enforcing MO's law? (I'm sure they're about the same) or will MO just verify that she is in fact ordered to pay and has not, and then CA applies it's laws?

wow, good info! but here's where I'm confused, I called Kansas SRS yesterday and they told me they couldnt do anything since neither one of us lives in KS. So I called Missouri's version of SRS(dss I think) and they weren't very informative at all, just said they'd send me an application for...

Quote: I guess I'm still murky on the difference in this course of action. what I'm doing so far: getting the original court order from KS applying for child support enforcement services here in MO where I live they're going to open an interstate case involving CA where the bio mom now lives...

Quote: feel free to butt in! This is the kind of insight I have been wanting. Since I've never been through a situation like this, hearing others' experiences and ideas will only help me along the way. yeah, I know it's going to be a long process, I'm not looking to remedy this month's or...

well, I called the county courthouse where the original order is from and since it's from so long ago they have to look for it in storage, but they said they'll give me certified copies for 50 cents a page. then I called Kansas social services because they have a child support enforcement...

Quote: thanks for the links! I have some experience as a paralegal, but none with family law. your reply speaks directly to my question. Where I'm at now with it is figuring out, who do I call first? what paperwork/fillings need to be done? what's the next step? etc. Like I said, Im not in a...

Quote: Thank you! I've been a part of her life since she was 2, and I love her no less than the children born to me. I didn't have a mother figure growing up, so I relate to her in a lot of ways, and I hope that I can make it easier for her to understand and deal with having an absentee...

Quote: She's been allowed visitation from day 1. and no, she isn't an example of a model parent, she treats her kids like they're her friends rather than impressionable children. Since she's moved to CA, she's flown out here twice(she has money for plane tickets but not child support), stayed...

whoa, some things I should clear up. First, I NEVER badmouth her mother. She's 12 now and mature enough to know that her mother doesn't take financial responsibility, but not in a matter where "that lazy bum mom of yours ________" or anything of the sort. She's also mature enough to understand...

Quote: I checked out the website, they want 34% of what they collect, I wish there was a way around that...

thanks for stopping by my post. I'm a mom of three daughters, 12, 9, and 4. Our 12 year old is actually my step from my husband's previous relationship, but we took custody of her when she was 5. She was living in deplorable conditions in a trailer in the middle of nowhere, not being sent to...
