Hello I will start of that I have two girls 8 and 6. Lived with there dad for 8 years. We separated in April 2015. I should have done everything then. I am self employed and have not done tax returns ever, either has he. We have no money for lawyers and because no tax returns no legal aid.
In that time I have received no child support and struggle financially. He has in the year and a but lived with three different woman and the kids have stayed over all three places.
The problem is he will show up at my place and try and take kids for a few hours, or show up at the school at take them over night. I seems he is taking them every second weekend as of late but will call at all hours and say I am taking them tomorrow and if I say you can't they have swimming or dance etc he threatens me and swears and will show up and take them. With his new person now he is threatening court so he can get spousal support.
I don't mind him having the kids every second weekend but but he wont do an order or agreement. he wants to be in charge. he won't pay child support and now he is doing his taxes as I am sure he wants the chils tax benefits and he took there birth certrificates and sin cards. I want to do my taxes but will owe so much money its scares me. I know its my fault but any suggestions.
One of my girlfriends said if I start and action for custody and only table amount support no extra curricular splitting of expenses ( dance skating etc ) I don't need to file tax returns. If he then asks for support or 50/50 split. He lives an hour away and would nt drive them each day. Would I then have to file tax returns. Its hard even getting out of bed knowing he will just show up and call and threaten me. Not violence about taking kids etc. Is there an easy way to get a court order saying Im the mom they live with me most of the time , follow this schedule and no picking up at school without my permission
sorry I feel so weak and helpless
