You're on the right track. Do take care of what you need to do and allow him to approach you. You kinda have a heads up that he's planning on moving out in June. Your lease is up in July, right? Do you want to drag this out longer, even if he decides to?
You're a smart lady The courts will decide how much he'll pay in child support. Do you know what the formula is for your state? In AL they add the parents' incomes together, the cost of childcare and healthcare and decide an amount (from a set table) of support. Then they apply the percentage of income you each provide to that amount. Say the amount of support is $500 a month and his income is 60% of the household income. The amount he would pay is $300. There isn't any negotating the amounts. The money was taken out of my H's paycheck and sent straight to the court. If you have any evidence of his secret account.. bank statements or something, hold onto it. You're entitled to part of that money. Just because he hides it doesn't mean it's not still marital income. I'm sure your Mom will give you great advice this weekend and will tell you to make sure you and D4 are taken care of. One of the biggest mistakes women make is to not ask for and get what they're entitled to. Whether it's fear of anger, abuse, custody battles.. keep on track with making sure you get the support from your H.
