If you have kids under 18 then you can also get $500 per child Account Closed If they were married and got less than 1200 then they probably made more than 150k but less than 200k

I did finally however convince her to buy our first rental about 5 years later even after having our first child and believe it or not she is the one who found the house.  

Its kinda like a spoiled child  you have to be firm, and don't give in if you know you are right. 

You allowed it there, and if it bites a neighbor or child, you are partly responsible.  

My child's school will be lucky if it's open in 6 weeks. 

What if a child drowns in the pool? 

Being a child of divorce, I'm sympathetic to the situation.

Their adult child asked if they could be on the lease and they would be responsible to pay the rent.

This is the nightmare scenario everyone hopes to avoid if you can you'll have to tough it out until the powers at be decide you can actually try to recover the funds you are owed and once that is the case this is one I wouldn't let go unless it is a last resort, because not paying anything towards rent is a choice not a necessity, even in HCOL Bay area and with a newborn the tenant isn't spending $4k of unemployment on groceries and utilities per month.

You can't evict a child you have held.
