I have been paying current and back child support to the state of WA for the past five years, and payments are being deducted from my paychecks. The balance of the back support started in the area of aprox 40k and now it's down to about 29k. I have no problem paying it and I also signed a waiver stating that I would it back in full for however long it would take.
Recently I had remarried and purchased a house. Now the state has put a lien on my house for the balance of the back support of which I am currently paying on. Can they do this? I am paying in good faith and do not plan on skipping out or anything. How can the state put a lien on my house on a debt that I am currently paying on? Also, the house is in both mine and my wifes name. This is my problem and not my wifes. Does my wife have any rights since half the house is hers? I would appreciate any feedback on this.
Thank you,
