Support medical/dental

I reside in San Diego CA and have a current order for support which covers medical and dental expenses.
My question is, if you have a support order that states that uninsured medical and dental costs are to be split 50/50, what should you file if it is not being done? Would this be a regular order to show cause or an affidavit constituting contempt?

If the order doesn’t specify the dental, would braces for cosmetic purposes still be paid by both parents?

I recently started receiving social security disability and am no longer able to work. My child receives a check from social security from my benefits. Do I still have to pay the full amount of court ordered child support or do I have to go back to court to get it modified?

child support when child’s residence changes

I live in Iowa and our divorce was finalized here with a child support order. I paid my support until the month my son was placed in my home by the juvenile court. He was removed from his fathers home due to abuse. No one seems to know how to change/stop the current order and satisfy the arrears. I can’t file taxes and they are threatening to take my license. Nebraska says Iowa support enforcement is the only one authorized to stop it and Iowa says it’s Nebraska’s responsibility. Neither will do anything and we are months away from finalizing custody. Is there a form I can file on my own to stop and back date child support? I can’t afford child support and child care! I am $2,000 behind now and it’s on my credit report and if I file my taxes he will get that money and I will never get it back from him.

I am a divorced father. The children have lived me off and on (whenever the mother decides she needs a break), Anyway I have consistently paid child support the whole time. And eventhough the children have now lived consistently with me for a year I still am paying child support and she refuses to stop it. Just recently she started giving me a couple of dollars here and there and giving the children groceries (of her choosing). She says she is going to claim them on her taxes eand this was the last straw. What can I do because I have absolutely have no money to persue this legally?
