    My ex husband is lying about his income. Child support here in Illinois can’t find that he is working but he pays directly to child support. I moved to the state of Michigan and they found out that he has two social security numbers which is why illinois couldn’t find that he is working. What do i do because i want to get a modification once i start working?
