my child support payment was determined in Florida. I then moved to NC. If the non custodial moves to NC does that change the amount of child support already determined by FL? If the non custodial moves to NC will that erase the amount in arrears?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

Generally, the CS stays the same (and no, arrears do not simply disappear). The courts do not want to encourage people to "shop" for the best deal by moving to a different state.

It doesn't work that way. All the NCP is doing is wracking up arrears and interest.
