My husband and I have been separated for four years, we have one minor child together. All assets have already been equally divided, as have any bills we have. I am filing for an uncontested divorce and we agree on everything & have a parenting plan designed so that we share our son equally. Neither of us wants to pay child support since we each provide for our child regularly. Can an uncontested divorce on grounds of irreconsilible differences be granted with no child support from either party based on the above information?
@juliebug1214,
Better check with a lawyer, but I doubt the court is going to grant a divorce with a minor child without ordering support.
@roger,
I have an appointment already, just curious if anyone else has been through a similar issue.

Yes, it can.
Child support is always modifiable based upon changed circumstances.
@juliebug1214,
Are you actually the wife, or the husband? On two separate threads you are representing yourself as both!

@Cycloptichorn,
Actually, I'm neither. I'm the girlfriend of the husband in this big mess.
The court will want to see assurances that the minor child is cared for.
So any 'agreement" this dad and mom have MUST be entered into the divorce judgment. Waiving child support is an example. But it can be changed at any time.
@PUNKEY,
Would the Parenting Plan be the assurance? As far as the daily care of the child?
That of course was filed with the court & everything was agreed upon.
