A,
My job is delaying my health benefits because I don't make enough money after child support deductions to pay for the benefits. This means I have to modify our current child support arrangement. I have been trying to avoid it, but basically I have to.
Along with the child support amount I have wanted to change a few things about our current parenting arrangement.
I would like to see this happen with the least disruption and stress to either one if us. To me that means either sitting down together and going over our current arrangement or I can send a list of things I'd like to change to you and vise versa and finding a middle ground we can both live with. Then getting an attorney or paralegal to write it up to submit to the court.
How would you like to progress?
Sincerely,
GB
G,
I am sorry you aren't able to get insurance. I know how much that sucks. I also know how hard it is not having enough money. I am struggling a lot too. And that is with the current support order. With that order, it was set with T only going to daycare 3 days/week. In January he will be starting at Hearn full time for preschool. I will be in school full time as well, so I couldn't keep him home even if I wanted to. But the school is good for him. He loves learning and enjoys his time with friends so I am not worried about him going full time.
Also, the current child support order was set for even less than our current parenting time arrangement. I agreed to less money already. And you haven't been able to take the kids the amount of time that is currently in our arrangement. Unfortunately I don't know how you can take them more often with you job. I give them to you whenever you are available and have asked you a few times if you can take them more. Conversely, you have asked me to keep them a few times because you needed to pick up extra shifts, have needed a day off to yourself to get stuff done or because you needed a date night. I have always been fully flexible with your changing schedule. Let me know what you are thinking of for a schedule as I ask every month.
Again, I am sorry for your money troubles. One thing I DO think we need to discuss is the house and how to get it turned over to the bank. I can't believe they still haven't foreclosed on it and it is really time for it to be gone.

My gross income has been roughly 2050-2400 per month. After deductions I am taking home about $650-750. That's not enough to live on.
I can do $500 per month total for child support including paying down the arrears. I want to remove the provision that I pay 2 days of the daycare expenses per week. That still won't leave me enough to live on but I won't be borrowing $750-900 per month to pay my bills.
Please provide me with a current copy of the child care expenses. I am working on the paperwork to submit and need those figures for the form.
Thank you

A,
This isn't going to be one of those things I start and drop. This is going to change. You can make it easy or difficult. If you decide to be unreasonable I will seek attorney's fees. Court means having lawyers etc. I would rather work it out peacefully together.
S's before school care is so you can work out, so that isn't part of the child support calculation. If you are required to be in school before 8, you can drop the kids with me in the mornings.
If you want to continue to leave the part of our decree that states I am responsible for paying 2 days a week of the daycare expenses active, then I will include that in how the child support is calculated.
Because you are electing to go to school your previous income will be used to calculate the child support. Please confirm your hourly rate of $16.14 per hour times 40 hours per week or provide documentation otherwise. If you have any other sources of income or if you are living rent free please disclose them now.
The last thing I need to complete the child support calculation is how you are paying for the kids medical coverage in the up coming year. Please provide that for me so I can complete the calculation that I will be filing. Either way, I believe Obama care subsidizes the cost of their care because your income is below the threshold and thus the cost of their care won't be part of the calculation unless you can prove otherwise.
Please let me know a) your school start time, b) how the kids will be insured and the costs, c) if you are willing the change the clause where I pay for 2 days of child care in our decree d) disclose or confirm your income.
Let's resolve this peacefully please. I'd like to work out an agreement to take in to the court as soon as possible with the least amount of disruption in our daily lives.
As far as the house is concerned, your bk is the problem and you need to resolve it. I can't do that for you. I would if I could. Mail, hand deliver, or otherwise make sure Chase has a copy of your discharge letter. As far as the HOA and stuff goes that should be resolved with the sale of the house. If for some reason it doesn't, you need to take up the new charges with your trustee. They reopened the case with Chase, which delayed the sale of the house.
Thank you,
G
