I live in Massachusetts. All court orders are from Massachusetts. I have legal and physical custody of my two children. My ex-husband moved to Florida 2 years ago before our divorce was final. Once he moved he completely stopped paying support. I have been trying to obtain child support through the Massachusetts child support enforcement division since Oct 2004. Massachusetts CSE was able to find an employer and get 3 support payments in March 2006. After that the employer reported to the state of Massachusetts that my ex was no longer employed by them. My ex has told my son and myself that he does indeed still work in the same place. I have called Massachusetts CSE to give them this information many times in the last year. I have also called his place of employment and asked to speak to him so I could see if he still worked there, and he is always there. The employer still denies his employment to the CSE every time they send a form to him. Because of this I am assuming that the employer is paying my ex under the table. I filled out a 3949a IRS form to report my ex and his employer around June 2006. Nothing was done. Today I sent an email to my ex's boss asking why he is telling the state of Massachusetts that my ex does not work there. A few hours later my ex called saying that he was fired from his job. I do not believe this is the case. I think he is telling me this so I will not contact the IRS. Is there anything I can do about him working under the table? Is there anything else I can do to collect the support in addition to CSE?
The other question I have is about my ex getting married before our divorce was final. During the first week of May 2005 I went to court (again) to try to get my divorce finalised. My ex did not show up to court. He had told me he was getting married that upcoming weekend (May 9, 2005) I told this to the judge and she had someone call him on the phone to tell him that she was giving us the divorce but it would not be final for 60 or 90 days (I can't remember) and that he could not get married on the 9th or he would be in contempt. He went ahead with the wedding anyway. He and his "wife" live as though they are legaly married. Is there anything I can do about this? Who would I report it to? I am just afraid that the new "wife" and children would be put ahead of his first two children from our marriage if anything were to happen to him.What is the name of your state?
