Alimony is paid by a parent who does not live with the child, and they can also be recovered from both parents if their parental rights are deprived in favor of a child being fostered in children's state institutions.
Instructions
Step 1
On the payment of alimony, a notarial agreement may be concluded, which indicates their amount and the timing of payments.
Step 2
If an agreement is not reached or is not satisfied with its size, the amount of alimony is established in court.
Step 3
The court may decide to pay alimony in a fixed amount or as a percentage of all types of income of the defendant on which income tax is withheld.
Step 4
One child is paid 25% of the respondent's total income.
Step 5
If the defendant is unemployed or receives very little, the payment of alimony is established in a fixed amount, which will be no less than 25% based on the minimum wage.
Step 6
Alimony may be lower if the defendant has many minor children to whom he pays alimony or has minor children in support other than those to whom he pays alimony. According to the law, all minor children of one person have the right to equal maintenance, therefore, the amount of alimony per child can be reduced depending on the specific situation.
Step 7
The amount of alimony can be increased if the respondent has a sufficient level of income, and the child living with the other parent is in need or when expensive medical treatment is required.
Step 8
If there is a debt for the alimony, the amount of the alimony that had to be paid in one month is calculated and multiplied by the number of months in debt, plus the current alimony. As a result, 70% of the income in favor of one child can be deducted from the defendant until the resulting debt is paid off.
