Re: Surrendering parental rights
Assuming Arizona law is the same as La., and I have no reason to believe otherwise, if you surrender your parental rights for your child to be adopted, you will no longer owe any child support for the child upon the child's adoption. If you owe an arrearage, that is a different matter, and can be addressed in the surrender. Yours, Steve
