    Post: workmen's comp and child support

    Posted by Renee on 5/15/09


    My former spouse was court ordered to pay child support for
    our two children. In 2004, he was injured at work and went
    on workmen's compensation. During this time he still owed a
    large sum of child support arrearages and this was taken out
    of his workmen's compensation check. 2008 is when he finally
    paid it off.

    At the begining of this year, he received his settlement
    against the company for his injury at work.

    He also applied for SSDI (in 2004) and in March he received
    his award letter and back pay (from SSDI).

    I was instructed by the Friend of the Court and my former
    spouse to file on behalf of our children for part of his
    SSDI benefits. I did this and I'm still waiting for the
    approval letter from SSDI.

    My question is this: Will I have to pay him back for the
    child support I received since 2004?

    (My former spouse is insisting that I owe him money because
    he was paying arrearages/c.s. since 2004)
