Here's the story. My ex and I were separated for 3 years. During that time he paid me child support. When we divorced we were getting along great and I agreed to leave child support out of the paper work because he was whining about CS "charging" him to take it out of his check and he promised he would continue to pay me. At that time I had no reason to doubt he wouldn't keep his word. Well then along comes the new gf soon to be wife who basically lives to make other people's lives miserable and damn she's good at it too!.
So this starts a 3 year stretch where I don't receive a dime. I'm paying for insurance, doctors bills, prescriptions, school supplies, clothes the whole nine yards. A year after I file the initial paper work for child support & custody, we finally get to court. During this time he quits a $30,000+ a year job to "start his own business" doing yard work, printing up fliers and some other bs. Soooo when we get to court he's cry'n poor mouth and says he doesn't even make minimum wage! So in the end I get $27 a week and they have to add my son to their insurance which I know didn't cost them a dime because they already had a family policy anyway. (I work insurance so I know the breakdown.)
My questions are...if I find out he's making more money, can I have his child support reviewed or do I have to wait the 3 years or whatever they require? And I also know all the ways the self employed can "cheat" the IRS and child support, so does anyone know how long he can play the "I don't make any money" game before he actually has to show his business makes money? His new wife had money (from her very generous 2nd ex-husband who was willing to pay BIG BUCKS to get away from her) so they are not hurting for money in any way, shape or form. They put her house on the market for $349,900 and have already dropped the price $65,000 in 6 months!!!! (The house is paid for - part of the divorce settlement from the 2nd husband.) Is there any way I can prove he's making more than he's claiming.
