VerifiedDebra Thal (username) :
Your eldest child it not entitled to support right now.
Debra Thal (username) :
He is not enrolled in school full time.
Debra Thal (username) :
When he returns to school he will again be entitled to support.
Debra Thal (username) :
So at this point you cannot consider him in the formula.
Debra Thal (username) :
So for now you pay support for two kids.
Debra Thal (username) :
Let me know if you need further clarification.
Customer:
When he does return to school full time and lives with me, will there be an impact? I was under the understanding that when he lived with his Mom, I had to continue to pay until hye reached 21 or made something in the basspark of in excess of 12k a year. Not so?
Debra Thal (username) :
No.
Debra Thal (username) :
A child gets support until he is 18 in Ontario.
Debra Thal (username) :
After that he gets support only if he remains living at home when not away at school and attends school full-time
Customer:
What about the 1st part of the question, if he lives with me and attends school full-time, do I still pay child support for two children ?
Debra Thal (username) :
If he attends school full time and lives with you then the way support is calculated is you figure out what you pay for 2 kids based on your income and subtract what she would pay you for one based on hers.
Customer:
Okay. That makes sense. At the rate he is going, he will graduate when he is 24? Child support continues until the kids finish university?
Debra Thal (username) :
Within reason.
Debra Thal (username) :
There is some discretion as there is no black and white answer.
Customer:
Okay. Last question. Does it matter that I live in Quebec and my kids in Ontario? These are federal laws as far as I understand so I did not think there was a difference but just wanted to confirm.
Customer:
Thanks for all your time.
Customer:
\F
Debra Thal (username) :
The support charts are slightly different but there is not much of a difference.
Customer:
Thanks again for your time.
Customer:
best regards,
