Am I legally responsible to payback a former employer for child support for months of child support paid on my behalf after I left employment? I did not know that the employer was still making child support payments after I resigned because I was already paid ahead in child support. I think that paying the money back would be the right thing to do but the employer is threatening legal action against me if I do not sign the repayment document on their terms. Thank you.
Answer
Hi and thanks for asking your question. Since the child support obligation is yours - not your employer's - it is ultimately your responsibility to pay it. If your employer was making it on your behalf, you have the legal obligation to repay those amounts to your employer.
