FAQ
Arizona law requires custodial and non-custodial parents to provide “reasonable support” for their minor children. A.R.S. § 25-501(A). This obligation is not avoidable.
Misconduct: Certain behaviors can also lead to the disqualification of alimony. For instance, if a spouse is found to have engaged in financial misconduct, such as hiding assets or failing to disclose financial information during the divorce proceedings, this can result in disqualification.
Child support is never deductible and isn't considered income. Additionally, if a divorce or separation instrument provides for alimony and child support, and the payer spouse pays less than the total required, the payments apply to child support first. Only the remaining amount is considered alimony.
If the check must be payable to the custodial parent, please include the SDU as the co-payee. For example, please make the check payable to “custodial parent and/or the state SDU.” Sending payments electronically to state SDUs is another way to ensure payments arrive quickly and safely.
In Arizona, alimony is considered reasonable if it is less than 50% of the paying spouse's income pre-divorce. Most reasonable spousal maintenance payments fall between 15% and 30% of the paying spouse's pre-divorce income to enable the receiving spouse to meet their own needs.
A: When you file for child or spousal support in California, the time it takes to receive temporary support depends on how soon a court hearing is scheduled. After you file your request, the court typically sets a hearing within a few weeks to a few months.
In general, the process of obtaining child support in Arizona can take up to six months. This timeline is not concrete and depends on how cooperative both of the involved parties are, and how complex the overall case is.
