What will happen if you are lying on your child support papers ????

Question

So I am going to court in 3 weeks for child support. I received my documents that I submitted and my x-gf submitted. I was going over her documents and noticed she said that she stated that she makes no income; however, has $1500 dollars in expenses. Then she goes on and doesn’t list any source of income. To me this is very strange. Also she didn’t mention anything about her house that she owns or her Jaguar that was paid in cash a year ago for 20k.

Now right where she you sign it states clearly, “I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the California that the information contained on all pages of this form and any attachments is true and correct.”

I would like to know, if she is going to be charged for perjury, and who will pursue this? Also, I would like to note, this is the same woman that is collecting Medi-Cal and Wick both government assistance. How did she pull that off in the state of California with owning a house and all her assets? Isn’t that fraud?

I have no problem with paying child support, however, when she is abusing our system and then lying on legal documents, to get more money out of me, I’m sorry but a line has to be drawn.

What can happen, who will look into this? Will she go to jail (God Forbid, but this is the same woman that I found out has been working as an escort) and now I’m seeking joint custody.

Answer 1

Proof, need it on paper, follow her and see where shes going for work, take pictures of all her assets, houses and car.  She has to be paying her expenses somehow, Take pics of the escort service she works for, take pics of the places of the clients she goes and sees,  

Answer 2

Yes, it is fraud. If busted, she could end up paying fines, will be forced to pay up, and could face jail time. Jail time is unlikely, however, so long as she pays whatever money she owes. That said, no one will look into it unless YOU take the initiative. If you don't care, they won't care. If you have an attorney, call them immediately and make them aware of the discrepancies so they can follow up and force your ex to 'fess up. You'll be shooting yourself in the foot if you don't. If you DON'T have an attorney, I strongly urge you to get one as soon as possible. You can't afford not to have one. I guarantee it.

Good luck!

Answer 3

If you know where she is employed then give that info to your attorney they may be able to request her paychecks or go through social security to see if she has any reported income.  If she is working as an escort how did you find out?  Web page, magazine ad? Get a copy of what you saw. If she is an escort working at night offer to watch your kid while she works.  More time for you and you will know the little one is well taken care of.   If she is just getting medi cal and wic then she can have a house, you just have to have low income.  If she is getting welfare then that is different because it is harder to qualify for.  

Answer 4

She committed perjury you need to tell your attorney and he should be able to come up with the paperwork such as titles or deeds to prove what your saying!
