Sentences with phrase «retroactive child support extends»

There are also two general rules that apply to such scenarios: 1) retroactive child support extends back three years from the date the paying spouse is given notice (for example by the fact that an application for an adjustment to support is launched with the court), unless there has been blameworthy conduct; and 2) the child must be a «child of the marriage» — and therefore eligible to receive support — at the time the application is made.
