Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
child support
I live in Illinois and my ex lives in Texas. I was paying a past due balance. After paying the past due balance I received a letter saying that I owed 3k in interest. Can interest be charged on child support or past due balances of child support?

Re: child support
Hello. Interest does accrue on delinquent child support, but you should make sure that this 3k is accurate, before you pay it. I am
surprised that this amount was not included in the initial demand for money. Will be happy to discuss this
with you further and in more detail.
