I got their packet many years ago and threw it away when I read one crucial part of the contract. Any money paid or collected will go towards arrears ONLY. Basically you are never done until the child is of age. The "new" child support is turned into arrears, because they don't apply payments to the "new", just the "old". The money you've lost already that should go to the child will only grow and grow. My "financially deadbeat" just took out a home equity loan and sent in a HUGE check. The state did put him on the chopping block after 10 years of nonpayment. Contempt of Court, put him in jail, he coughed up money finally. The state of Florida also charges interest on arrears. I will be getting that as well. I think I went the best route for me/us and impatiently waited. I didn't have to pay the 33% and I'm getting interest as well. Good luck to you and all in a bad situation.
