Reporting Child Support Fraud in North Carolina, USA?
I’ve just came across some evidence pertaining to me when i was around 13 years old. [i am now 22]. when i was 13 i went to live with my aunt and uncle for about 14 months, and then moved back home with my mom. I recently found a paper stating that my uncle is STILL receiving child support from my absent parent. My mom is also receiving back pay from my dad. I feel that my uncle is committing child support fraud because i haven’t been in his household in almost 10 years. Can anyone give me any suggestion on what I should do?! Thanks! =]
My father is the Absent Parent… I showed my mother the paper and she has no idea how to go about the situation.
No. There is no money owed to him. My mom did give him money during the time i was with them. The money never reached me though. They left me there at their home and took trips to the beach with it. PLUS, the child support was never started back up til after i was 18 years old. Therefore, the back pay is what is being paid now. My Uncle never had legal custody of me so Im not sure how he’s getting any money. I just know that he is. And since my mom had an open case when i was living with them, the caseworker said that they could not receive any money, and had no right to [that is what was said when we went to check on it when i was 13, to get the money in my name]

If it applies to arrears, than yes he can. It’s owed him, not you or your mother. Did your mother also pay during that 14 months, or was she a deadbeat?

First, you need to ask your mother about it. You didn’t define which parent is the "absent parent." However, your mother would NOT be paying child support to your uncle at this point. Your father is currently paying to your mother, so he would not be required to pay your uncle either, even if it would be considered back pay because that would be paying twice for the care of the same child. If your mother doesn’t know anything about it, show her the paper and together decide what to do. Good luck!
