The reason i'm asking is because i've heard both yes and no, so I'm confused. Some say that child support is due to me, therefore I can do whatever I want with it and it would be my choice to forgive it if I want to as long as none of it belongs to the state. Then others say no it can't be forgiven because it's for the child and it would have to be in the child's best interest for it to be forgiven. So which is it? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
When nobody answers your question, it often means that nobody knows the answer. We do not have any AK pros here, nor even a resident, to my knowledge.
On the bright side, at least no clueless newbie from another state gave you bad info.
GENERALLY, IF no money is owed to the State, the CP can forgive arrears.
