In some situations where a parent hasn\u2019t been making proper child support payments, Florida law can mandate retroactive child support payments to be made prior to when the divorce filing was finalized. <\/p>\n<p>This mainly occurs when a custodial parent becomes responsible for the child and pays their day-to-day expenses. If you are required to pay retroactive child support payments, speak with a family lawyer for men who can help you navigate the facts of the case and understand what you are responsible for.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to note that retroactive child support cannot be collected if the non-custodial parent is unable to pay. You can only retroactively file for child support in 24 months previously. This means that if you are owed more than two years of child support you can only apply to get those owed to you within the past 24 months. For example, if a parent filed for child support in March 2014, the court may extend payments back to March 2012.  A parent can collect retroactive child support from the time you were no longer living with the other parent, or two years, whichever is shorter. It can be helpful to consult with a family lawyer for men when filing for retroactive child support, as they are well-versed in the court procedures. <\/p>\n<p>Retroactive child support is in addition to your regularly scheduled child support payment. If you or your spouse can\u2019t afford payments, you can petition the court to modify or temporarily postpone payments. <\/p>\n<p>If you are seeking retroactive child support payments, it\u2019s important to speak with a family lawyer for men who understands Florida\u2019s legal system.
