Expense Tracker: Record When a Parent Refuses to Pay
The Custody X Change expense tracker can help you keep tabs on your child-related spending and get reimbursed for costs shared with the other parent.
If you're just getting started, learn how to add, edit or delete an expense.
Below, find details on how to record when one of you refuses to pay the requested amount.
To begin, click the expenses tab. (On a phone screen, you may need to click "more" first.)

If the other parent entered the expense, you can't delete it or change the amount. However, you can respond that you won't pay, and this information will be attached to their expense entry.

Record that the other parent refuses to pay
