Military Child Support
Good morning. My soon to be ex husband has been separated for six months. I haven’t received any money from him. I haven’t asked. We split the time with our child 50/50. He pays for the daycare (which includes the stipend payment he gets from the military), so I think it’s a fair deal. My child is 3 and will be out of daycare in about 2 years and will most likely go to public school. We’re soon going to go to mediation to finalize our divorce agreement. Should I ask for child support?
Yes. The worst thing that can happen from asking is the court says you aren't entitled to any child support, but unless you and your ex's incomes are the same or close to the same, you'll be entitled to something even with 50/50 custody
