I am from Hong Kong. I won't consdier going back as my kids are living and studying there and they don't speak chinese. I have two daughters, D15 (very angry teenager) and D12 (she looks like asian alot). They are my only family here. Since their dad left for USA to pick up the marketing manager job, I get their full custody, and we had done one year shared custody which was completely a nightmare for me and the kids.
He never produced his income details, just some pay rolls slips. He has a bonus but I don't know how much. He also has a housing allowance of US$2000 per month.
My sister lives in Boston, I went to visit her a couple of times in the past. Now that I am a single mom and with limit revenue,I longer be able to travel anywhere. My kids fly to visit him during long school holidays.
When the divoce is final here, I won't get spousal support anymore, the current child support is fixed at the moment 600€ for both kids per month. I work a part time job, only make 700€/m we are living in the marital house. I don't see how I can support myself and my two teenagers daughters with an income of 600+700=1300 plus paying rent for our apartment in the near future.
The extracurricular activities are nomally shared 50/50%. But when I claimed for that, he just answered in the email cc lawyer that he never refused/objected to participate for the extra activities expensesBUT HE NEVER PAYS ME BACK the 50%.
In your thread you said you pay already US$600 to your ex for two kids as child support per month in shared custody, I find my child support is relatively low, and he didn't pay medical insurance. FYI, I also have to pay for my own attorney.
Thanks for hearing, I will drop by your thread later.
