well I heard somebody today talk about repairing bad credit and the types of things you need to do to establish good credit well I'm here to tell you one of the things that can ruin your credit is not paying your child support on time the federal government and New York state provide a tickler through the New York state department not yet the department of social services through the support collection unit that if you don't pay child support on time they will send a negative rating to your credit report and there is absolutely nothing you can do so if you want to keep good credit then make sure you pay your child support on time whether you agree with it or not otherwise this is one of those things you cannot remove from your credit report so that's one issue so to establish good credit keep paying your child support on time so besides that a lot of people complain about what is child support how it's calculated and how it doesn't seem fair well the only way you're going to ever rectify that is to take an original support proceeding and proceed to trial and prove to the court the reasons why the court should not order a hundred percent of what the statute says you're obligated to pay so if you have one child at 17 percent two children twenty five percent three it's twenty nine percent and it goes up from there so one of the things that are not well they call it mandatory add-ons but they're not really mandatory are things like daycare medical expenses and health insurance and extracurriculars so you don't have to pay them if you can't afford to pay them well the court doesn't know if you only make thirty thousand dollars a year and you're obligated to pay a hundred dollars a week towards child support and that only leaves you four hundred dollars a week to live you can't afford to pay a 200 a week uh daycare bill along with trying to maintain housing for yourself so again like i said the only way for the court to actually know what your true finances are and if the number that you're trying to come up with the other side isn't reasonable or you don't think it's fair then set the matter for a hearing let the judge decide that way you'll always have an opportunity to appeal it and let the higher-ups decide whether or not in fact was a fair and reasonable and just order so remember that and child support order cannot be unconscionable or unjust it has to always be fair and reasonable those are the few sound bites keywords that any good child support attorney would use to defend an amount to pay for support so there you have it so a little bit of child support and how to repair your well not repair your credit you have to go to somebody who knows how to repair your credit but they won't be able to repair your credit if you don't pay support on time
