To be absolutely 100%
clear on this.  There is no intent to attempt recovery of past child
support payments.  

My sister-in-law and niece are only
interested in finding a way to navigate the financial aid system with the
reality of dad's non participation and non contribution being
recognized.  ie, they want the system to view their situation as mom and
daughter only.

Ideally that's the hope.
