I have a daughter who is 2 and a half. She was born May 2007. Her father and I never lived together.
In September 2007 I filed an application for Child Support. He did not show up to the scheduled court date, nor did he respond to the application.
In Feb 2008 the judge granted my order for child supoort, which was based on Human Resource Canada Salary info because my daughter's father did not file a fainancial statement or income tax returns. The order was also back-dated to May 2007 when my daughter was born. The judge also granted payments to contribute to daycare expenses.
Now in August 2009 (18 months later), my daughter's father has served me with a motion to change. He want's his arrears wiped out based on his income being a lot lower since the order was granted, and wants to pay $0 going forward. This is based on the fact that he has not worked since November 2008. He has been working for himself, not claiming any of the income. He claims he spends $2300/month in expenses but no income, no debt. He lied and said he pays rent, but I know he does not and lives with his grandmother. The address he himself claims he lives at is his also where his grandmother lives, and she ownes the home. He claims he does not expect his financial situation to change. He is 27yrs old, University Degree. I know he is intentionally not employed because he does not want to pay child support. Any advise on how to respond? What the judge might say to this?
