Child Support Payments

Dear jtboyle:

Greetings. No, just because your ex-wife remarried, your child support payments are not increased nor decreased. If your ex-wife quits working after her new marriage, that may herald a change in your child support payments.

The response posted above is based upon the limited factual information made available and is not intended as a full and complete response to the question. The only reliable manner to obtain complete and adequate legal advice is to consult with an attorney, fully explain your situation, and allow the attorney sufficient opportunity to research the applicable law and facts required to render an accurate opinion. The basic information provided above is intended as a public service but a full discussion with an attorney should be undertaken before taking any action.

If my ex-wife remarries, does that effect the child support payments I am making?
