I received an email from a reader who said that she got pregnant by someone that she later found out was an illegal alien. She is now wondering if it's possible for her to force him to pay child support.
I am wondering if you have any information about getting child support from someone whos status is not of legal status.
I recently had a baby by someone, who I found out later, does not have legal status. He is not taking responsibility for the child, and I am having a hard time knowing what to do.
I'm not going to lecture her.
I don't have the answer to this, but I'm guessing that she's out of luck. It's hard enough to get the government to find and deport illegal aliens. Finding one and forcing him to pay child support, I would think, would be 10 times harder to do.
Does anyone out there with experience have an answer to this?

i have a baby by an illegal alien. i was conned by him into having a baby with him because i thought he loved me. all he wanted from me was papers. well he figured out that i was never gonna marry him and he left me for some other dumb girl so now they are married. he wanted to get rights to see my child. but he hasn't given me a cent. so i don't let him see my child. payback.
