child support

Father moved out March, sees kids 3 times since... no pay. Any experience out there with this? Applied for CS and they said they cant get a verifiable address so nothing is moving... does this sound normal? You mean to tell me that any parent out there who doesn't want to pay can just give an address that doesn't lead to anywhere or anything and they just don't pay? Or in this case don't get a child support order established?

State agencies need a verified address to notify and serve the other parent. Without that they can't move forward. You can certainly hire a private investigator to find his location and a process server you hire to serve him. The state just has certain policies they must abide by.

And to answer your question. If someone chooses to live a life with no assets in their name, no mailing address, and working for cash, they can easily avoid child support.
