Veteran- Child Support

Card image cap

Hello I’m a U.S. Army Combat veteran diagnosed with TBI and PTSD was receiving treatment while active and continued treatment and still currently taking 5 different medications. Upon my discharge in 2014 it has been very difficult for me sustain continuous employment on a long term basis due to my symptoms having approx 10 different jobs since being discharge in 2014 losing my last one in June 2024. I made partial payments up to Oct 2024 my numerous gaps in employment has caused me to accrue outstanding arrears over 10 years I pay $820 monthly and once I loose jobs it’s almost impossible to pay. I have an contempt of court hearing for 2 cases 1 is 15k arrears and the other 5k arrears. I’ve just been awarded 80% VA Disability Compensation for my disabilities which has effected my employment effective Feb. 1, 2025 and made a full monthly payment upon receiving my first monthly payment. The kids in the cases are 16 and 18. Will my VA Disability show good cause in regards to the contempt as I can now assure I will have the income to make payments consistently until I pay the arrears balances in full?
