[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think my husband's ex declared him.  We have no idea what kind of aid the kids got as the ex and kids always lie to him.  [/quote]

Does he have any % custody of the kids or are they completely estranged? Is there a court ordered custody agreement that his ex might have used as proof of her sole custody? Did he end up paying any of the college costs?[/quote]

Joint custody but mom refused visitation despite going to court.  Judge would order it, mom refused and no consequences.  He paid child support and extras. Two older kids continued on child support and alimony for several years after it should have been done to be decent.  Mom should have declared the child getting child support monthly after 18 but I do not think she did.  Eventually at one of the hearings the judge completely redid the order after two kids were over 19 and alimony was long over (but he still paid it) and redid it only for the youngest.  Mom was pissed but she started the child support hearing demanding more money since we had just gotten married.  Kids did not know he paid as she told them he did not pay child support. I am assuming they lied and said child was not getting support when they were.

If you are getting child support after 18, you probably need to declare it.  They do not check for accuracy as we never got called.  The risk of no disclosure is probably very low.
