[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a SAHM before separating, and have very small children (toddler and baby). I was living overseas with limited employment opportunities so have relocated to the US with our children. STBXH was financially abusive: I couldn't have any money he didn't know about, couldn't withdraw money, couldn't save money. I took out a credit card to get out and am living on a cash advance. We still have a joint account but when he got paid he cleaned it out save for $100. When I told him I need more for the kids, he said, basically, tough sh*t. Is there anything I can do? From what I understand this process could take up to six months. I'll have a job but will also be paying childcare, along with everything else. Any advice appreciated. [/quote]

Tell the child support office and ex you are filling for assistance. That gets the date to move faster and it means he will owe the state . State gets its money.[/quote]

I second this. Just told a friend the same thing last week. Apply for TANF, WIC for any kids under 5, Food Stamps, FARMs for any school age kiddos, and utility assistance. The state will go after him because his negligence is costing taxpayers. Also, you don't pay the yearly collection fee for wage garnished CS if you were ever on public assistance.[/quote]
