Tax filings may be one of the many considerations that a single parent in Pennsylvania might face. There are several things parents can keep in mind before filing taxes.
The purpose for and uses of child support
Many people mistakenly believe that child support is meant to only pay for the bare necessities of a child, including shelter, clothing and food. However, Pennsylvania parents need to understand that child support is intended to pay for more than just those expenses.
What is a parenting plan?
When a child custody case is contested, a Pennsylvania court may require the parents to submit a parenting plan. This agreement is the result of negotiations between the parents, whether through informal means, collaborative law or mediation, with the aim to resolve all of the custody issues that are contested.
