A: The average amount of money paid in child support by non-custodial parents is about $430 a month for one child. The amount paid in child support per child may change based on the number of children being supported, the income of both parents, and the amount needed to raise the children in this particular dynamic.
In Texas, the non-payment of child support can transition from a civil issue to a significant legal problem, potentially resulting in a state jail felony charge. This generally occurs when the outstanding amount is equivalent to or exceeds a full year's worth of payments.
Continued contempt of court for parents who fail to pay child support may escalate the consequences from a civil arrest warrant to: A criminal warrant if the defendant owes $2,500 or more in unpaid child support. Felony charges and up to 2 years in prison for $10,000 or more in unpaid child support.
