Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
I have a question, this is in regards to my boyfriend. he is currently in the child support sysyem but occasionally he gives the childs mother (ex-wife) money via bank transfer, never cash. my question is can she tell the child support system that he gives her this money via bank tranfer and he still gets credit toward child support payments or will the system consider those monies "gifts"? please answer this for me. thank you

It depends upon the judge. She can file an affidavit of direct support and the OAG will usually give him credit. The Orders however, usually state that any payments made informally, or outside of the disbursement unit will be considered gifts and not credited to child support.
