Question:

I pay child support, owe arrears, and recently was offered a one-time lump sum payment from a pension I held at a previous job.

Will this payment affect my child support obligation or the amount of arrears owed? I was never married to the child's mother so I assume she would have no other claim to this payment.

Question:

How will my pension and retirement benefits affect my child support order?

Is my government pension not allowed to be factored into child support? I have one child who will have reached the age of emancipation by the time I retire and another child who will turn 18 after I am retired.

Should I file a motion to modify child support based on my retirement income?

Question:

I divorced many years ago and the only issue that has never been resolved is the Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO), which is used to divide retirement accounts between parties in a divorce case.

My company tried to get my ex-wife to fill out and execute the QDRO to no avail while withholding half of my pension. Because of the lack of response, my company sent me all of the withheld monies from the pension and ended the QDRO withholding.

So my question is how long am I liable for a possible QDRO claim?

Question:

My question is about cashing out a pension and whether my ex-wife is entitled to a portion of it.

My former employer is offering me a one-time offer for a lump sum pension. My divorce decree awarded a portion of my pension to my ex-wife, but she understands my dire financial situation and is willing to let me keep all of the pension.

Is my ex-wife's verbal agreement enough for me to keep my pension? Should I fill out some document when I submit my forms for the lump sum payment?

Question:

Being retired military and receiving a military pension, is there any way that my wife could waive her claim on my retirement or any other property?

Or is the state going to divide my property, namely my military pension, regardless?
