My child support was ordered to begin in October, but they wouldn't start taking the $$ out of my paycheck until November. SO...I had to pay in cash for October.
Well - as it ended up the state actually DID take out child support from my last paycheck in October. This happened because my employer sent in the paperwork early, and the state got it set up sooner than expected. NO BIG DEAL...but my ex-wife thinks that the money from my October paycheck should be applied to November...just...well just "because".
I told her that's now how this works and she would receive $$ from all my paychecks from here on out. I called the Attorney General's office and talked to them about it. They said that YES...the $$ taken out of my October paycheck was the 2nd half of my OCTOBER cs that was due.
SO...that means I still owed her for the previous half of October which I had already given her. NOW she doesn't agree and wants me to pay another October payment to her. I've told her to call the Attorney General and fight with them because they told me we're good for October.
Now...she's throwing a fit...and it sucks because we were doing the whole "shared custody" thing really well. I can't give her any more freaking $$...I'm stretched thin as it is and according to the state I don't have to. The $$ I have been ordered to give her already covers ALL her bills and gas/grocery needs, and she REFUSES to go out and get a job. I guess I'm just venting because part of me really wants to feel sorry for her, but part of me gets angry that she STILL won't get out and freaking do something for herself and our kids. She still wants it to be ALL on my shoulders even though she divorced me. Ughhhh...what a pain in the [censored].
