It does not appear from your statement that she is stealing your mail - rather she is sending it to you.

I suggest you file another change of address notice and also contact those known to you that would be sending you mail.

Yes it will. Child support is based on the income of both parties. The child support figures take into account child care, after school care, medical, dental and in come cases after school activities.
