When the judge made an interim order against me for support payments I was unemployed, so it was based on minimum wage.
I have since found (sporadic) employment through a temporary job placement agency.
I just received a letter from FRO informing me that I am now in the program. I'm not an unwilling payer.
'Til now I have just given the recipient a cheque for the amount of CS ordered on the first of every month.
I guess my question is:
Is it likely that the recipient's lawyer initiated payments through FRO to protect her client in case I didn't get enough work in a month (about 3 days) to cover my CS payment?
That is, if FRO couldn't take CS from a non existent paycheque, then it would accrue as arrears and the recipient is just "playing it safe"?
There is no conflict (financial or otherwise) between us, so I'm just a little confused as to why now. I will ask her in person, but to be honest, she has little clue as to what's going on as far as our custody, support & access case goes. Every time I ask a question, she says she has to talk to her lawyer first.
