Child Support 3 States, no physical address

Get a skip tracer or a private investigator to find your ex. I realize that's not cheap, but you've gotta find him before you can get any support $$.

Thank you.. money is a big issue.. plain and simple I don't have enough to even provide a roof over our head. My family is not in a position to help either. The Child Support Unit has verified his employment, I just don't understand why they can't get an address.

I don't either. He can certainly be served at work.

That's what I'm hoping, but he's at sea for 3 weeks (deckhand) and home for a week. I don't know his schedule. Then we're up against... filed in NH, sent to AL, and his work is out of Louisiana.

I understand the Child Support Services DHHS are inundated with cases that they can't get anywhere with, but they sure are rude as hell and act like they have done all they can do. I guess I'll have to bring up the idea of serving him before he leaves or as he gets off the boat.

I wonder if they would send the papers upon request to whoever it is that can legally serve them to him.. anyone know about this scenario?

That I don't know. Process servers work for a fee, and you would probably have to be pretty specific about when and where he is to be served. I hope you can get at least this much out of your state child support agency.

If child support has been awarded, you might get the court to order garnishment of wages. At that point, you are dealing with someone who does have an address. That is, his employer.
