Child Support- Canada- questions?
After years of Bs, financial mental and emotional abuse, I have decided to leave my husband. I have fouind a place to live far away, and will be on welfare until my job starts in November.
I have a few questions about child support. My soon to be ex, makes about 66 thousand after tax, per year. his expenses per month will be about $1600 per month. We have one child together, who is 3, and a son who is 8 (mine from a previous relationship, whose father is court ordered to pay support but he never does).
What amount of support is generally recommended for an income of 66 thousand dollars per year, and will he have to pay support for my son (who was 2 when my husband and I moved in together). I just want to get an idea of what to expect.
Also, for custody- my husband has many, many financial issues, may be losing his job due to driving with revoked license, stolen plates, unregistered car, no insurance, thousands of $ in fines in the last 3 months. I also have letters from several people, including a therapist, stating that my husband has severe emotional issues, and severe stress management and rage issues. HE told me that he will be fighting me for custody and that I will NOT take his kids from him. I don't feel safe or comfortable leaving the kids with him NOW because of his rage issues (he has never hit the kids- only intimidation and screaming). I sure as hell don't want him taking them overnight or anything because he has also told me if I ever left he would take the kids on his weekend and I would never see them again.
Any advice on how to deal with this? I have a lawyer I am seeing Friday, a restraining order on my husband, and a house lined up for August 15th move in date.
Thanks.
I can definately prove to courts that at least my son should NOT be around him. I have audio on my cell phone of my soon to be ex screaming at my son to stop being a ***** and stop neing a **cking whiner, and to get is his room before he kicks his *** in there and hurts him. he has recently started being the same to our daughter, going so far as to pick her up and literally throw her into her room. Hence the restraining order. I just don't have proof about the abuse toward our daughter.
for the lady bitching about me getting tax dollars- screw you. I have worked for the government as a contractor ffor YEARS and have PAID my taxes for YEARS. So WHAT I might get like a couple grand over a few months. Big effing deal- thats WHY the system is THERE. To HELP when you NEED IT. I'm not happy about doing it, but when your husband gambles down to your last dollar and has payday loans dinging MY bank all the time, there isnt much other CHOICE. I will NOT STAY just because of idiots like you who are pissed about people who get assistance. I'm not making a ******* lifestyle from it, I am using what is available to me so my kids dont grow up ****** up.
I don't need your ******** sarcasm.

He will owe child support ONLY for his own child. The other child isn't his responsibility.
The court has a way they factor support, they will enter in all the numbers and set it. You have no say.
If he is a danger to the children, then prove it. Other wise he has a right to see his child. If you can prove it in court then you are fine. They don't take heresay, so bring anything you have.

He is not responsible for your child. Your other ex is. As for child support for your child with him, it is usually 16-18%. If he loses his job you will be lucky to get $100 a month so better start looking for a better paying job or a second job.

I am SO happy that my tax money is going to you until November! Good job!
Source(s): Sorry, you chose him to be your husband and the father of your children. There is always other ways than welfare. I have been in tough situations and if you want to work - there is always a job for you!
