Child Support Arrears And Drivers License Suspension

by DeJones
(Memphis,Tn)

My husband had three boys in Ohio and had court ordered support of $221 per wk. He paid until 2002 when he had surgery and has not been able to work since. He had arrearages of $21000 and is now being told the state will take his drivers license unless he starts payments again. His youngest child is now 31! He does not even live in Ohio. Can they come to the state he lives in and take his license? What option does he now have?

Yes they can suspend his license for back support! Have him contact the caseworker and try and set up a payment arrangement to avoid this.



Thanks

no license no pay
by: mr. boston

it is sad that the men are always wrong even if right, the judges do whatever they can to make sure the man suffers the most, well it is tiime for the laws to change and revamp the antiquated child support system and get a realistic plan for fathers willing to pay and knock off the license game it is not legal

Georgia is a Bully
by: Linda in Georgia

When the State takes away a paying Dad's driver's license so that he cannot work, let's have the State take care of the Dad and all of his children as well. It is time to put an end to this bullying tactic. Simply put, the State of Georgia is using a method called extortion/blackmail/scam.

The State of Georgia wants thousands of dollars in return for a driver's license so Dad can go back to work. The current system only makes matters much worse for the children receiving the child support. Soon there will be NO child support from the parents and the State will be responsible for everyone involved.

Been there...
by: Anonymous

My ex rarely made any child support payments in the past 17 yrs since he abandoned the family. I struggled to find employment (was a housewife when he left) initially taking temp work making $8 hr. He told the court he couldn't find a job, they told him he should be able to make at least minimum wage and based his child support off that (approx $50 a mos for two children). I worked two jobs most of the time to support the children on my own.

My ex has had his license revoked because he chose to work under-the-table and not to pay...I think he deserves whatever penalty they give for non-payment. If I chose to neglect my children I would have been sent to prison for child abuse... to this day he is still in arrears to the tune of $30,000+ (which he will never pay).
