Sample Child Support Payment Inquiry Letter

Dear [First name],

Our daughters and son send their love.

But when will you send them the child support you promised the court and me?

As you well know, the child support payment is overdue by 10 days.

I know you have always thought of yourself as a failure as a mother.

But the truth is, the kids have always loved and respected you and looked up to you.

Your own obsession with perfection undermined our marriage and made you an alcoholic.

My own lack of understanding and patience only made matters worse.

I am sorry if I appear to be ranting but our estrangement and the divorce have been hard on the kids.

Every day you delay the child support payment makes it that much more harder for me to make ends meet.

I hope you remember, I had a workplace accident three months ago and I was forced to drag my employer to court as they believe it was my own negligence that caused the accident.

Anyway, the case is still in court and my lawyer expects a verdict no earlier than two months from now.

My own meager savings continue to dwindle and with three hungry mouths to feed, it's been tough.

If you kindly take care of the child support payment immediately, I will be much obliged.

If not, I will be forced to seek legal help.

Sincerely,

[Signature]
