Re: Child Support cap in New Jersey
|
[quote]The kids have lived in Jersey for 1 year and 1 month. I live in Dallas Tx. The kids lived in Tx for 2 yrs prior to my ex moving them to Jersey last year. Since they have lived there for that long, can I follow the child support law in Texas with the cap?
>>>>>>>>>> There is no " cap " in Texas , income of over $7,500/month is still subject to CS but the presumptions for guideline percentage ( 20% for 1 child , 25% for 2 , etc ) no longer apply , a greater or lessor percentage may be ordered . Either state may assume jurisdiction under the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act , although it's more likely the state where the children are living now will prevail . [/quote]
---> Which is why I just posted the statute, hoping he would realize his information is incorrect AND the child issue will be handled where the kids are living and have for a whole now. You can't go CS shopping.
