HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted December 12, 2013 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted December 12, 2013 Couple of things you should consider. Contact the court about getting a child support reduction hearing/order. I believe the current minimum is $50 monthly based on your income. If you do not the support will continue to accrue, fast. This is not about trying to screw the ex or your children but just to make an acceptable temporary adjustment. When you're back on your feet, financially, they can adjust it again. Consider bankruptcy. Not what one wants to do but what you might need to do it to get back on your feet. I did it. During my claims process, I lost a marriage, a house, and just about everything you can imagine. I lived in my vehicle. The VA doesn't care! They are an insurance company and like an insurance company, they don't want to pay. You will win, eventually, but you must never give up. This is just a test of what you are capable of doing. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger!! Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, did I say ever, give up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Apply for SSDI, now. Also, get over the idea that life is fair, cuz it ain't. Good things happen, bad things happen, both to good and bad people . . . forget fairness. jmo pr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Tbird Posted December 12, 2013 Founder Share Posted December 12, 2013 Amen PR. Tbird Founder HadIt.com Veteran To Veteran LLC - Founded Jan 20, 1997 HadIt.com Veteran To Veteran | Community Forum | RallyPoint | FaceBook | LinkedIn | About Me Time Dedicated to HadIt.com Veterans and my brothers and sisters: 65,700 - 109,500 Hours Over Thirty Years I am writing my memoirs and would love it if you could help a shipmate out and look at it. I've had a few challenges, perhaps the same as you. I relate them here to demonstrate that we can learn, overcome, and find purpose in life. The stories can be harrowing to read; they were challenging to live. Remember that each story taught me something I would need once I found my purpose, and my purpose was and is HadIt.com Veterans.
