Update: 1st month ex paid Fro directly, he short paid by $500. He was given 30 days to submit a "VAPS" on the arrears. He failed to do so. 2nd month he short paid by $200 - now FRO has placed a Federal Garnishment on him. He's self-employed so I don't think it will affect him the way in which it might, most people.
I am thus far, satisfied with how the Fro is acting on my behalf. I also like the case worker that's been assigned to me.
I have no idea when they will collect the arrears. Ex's house is selling or sold (not sure, it's off MLS now) and I wish there was some way that arrears could be seized in full - but the home, the "matrimonial" home (he is married) - does not bear his name on title. His wife shelters assets and money. I'm thinking of sending a letter to the M.A.G., and cc it to Andre Marin, Ontario's Ombudsman. It should not "be" that it is so simple to evade/avoid all kinds of situations simply b/c one's name is not attached to it.
It is abundantly clear that he (ex) has a vested interest in the Mat-home and the sale/profits from it. They have spent over 60k renovating it in the past year, yet he doesn't have money to pay Court ordered CS/SS and arrears? He is the only one working in the household and generates an income of about 120k/year as a self employed person. His wife is home with 2 young children. It's pretty obvious who is paying all the bills in that house.
It's bs that the "it's not in his name" thing seems to absolve him of so much. I believe the Courts would first need to identify his wife as a co-party wrt sheltering assets and "frustrating" the efforts of the FRO, before FRO would be able to take enforcement action against her as well.
I'm so tired of being ripped off. In plain sight. In broad daylight.
Oh, and now that ex is paying "closer" to the amount ordered (after almost a full year since the date of the order), he says things to S13 like "no I can't get you this/that b/c your mom is getting too much money from me." Or - when he 'almost' bought S13 an item that he'd promised to, he said "don't tell *wife's name* that I bought this, b/c she'll flip." (It was a $50 item). Soon, he'll say he can't buy him a milkshake from McDonald's :s
