Let's see.. um.. as to the first question, I'm not sure. I think it would depend on what worksheet they have been using to calculate child support. Do you know which one they were using? And it would probably depend on if the amount of overnight stays per year in your house was altered and by how much. That's what they go by when determining which worksheet to use.
I really don't know about them closing the case for 3 years and not requiring her to pay insurance. I guess that site didn't say anything about that. Hmmm. I really don't know. Maybe you could find an attorney or paralegal in your area to ask about that.
I found this at
www.ncchildsupport.com I don't know if it will help or not. They have the guidelines listed on there.
Health Insurance and Health Care Costs
Top
The amount that is, or will be, paid by a parent for health (medical, or medical and dental) insurance for the children for whom support is being determined is added to the basic child support obligation and prorated between the parents based on their respective incomes. Payments that are made by a parent's employer for health insurance and are not deducted from the parent's wages are not included. When a child for whom support is being determined is covered by a family policy, only the health insurance premium actually attributable to that child is added. If this amount is not available or cannot be verified, the total cost of the premium is divided by the total number of persons covered by the policy and then multiplied by the number of covered children for whom support is being determined.
The court may order that uninsured medical or dental expenses in excess of $100 per year or other uninsured health care costs (including reasonable and necessary costs related to orthodontia, dental care, asthma treatments, physical therapy, treatment of chronic health problems, and counseling or psychiatric therapy for diagnosed mental disorders) be paid by the parents in proportion to their respective incomes.
The court may order either parent to obtain and maintain health (medical or medical and dental) insurance coverage for a child if it is actually and currently available to the parent at a reasonable cost. Health insurance is considered reasonable in cost if it is employment related or other group health insurance, regardless of delivery mechanism. If health insurance is not actually and currently available to a parent at a reasonable cost at the time the court orders child support, the court may enter an order requiring the parent to obtain and maintain health insurance for a child if and when the parent has access to reasonably-priced health insurance for the child.
I was thinking you could if there was a change in circumstances.
