Paying maintenance to the minor child is totally different subject to that of the child custody.

You can very well file a child custody case and ask for visitation rights to visit the child.

In the maintenance case also you can request the court to direct her to bring the child to court in order to enable you to meet your child and have some quality time with the child

Courts never restrain either of parents from meeting with child except under extraneous condition of any threat to the child and that is rare of rarest. You are judging the case in your own ways and apprehensions. Why would you be away for eight long years without meeting the child and suddenly your emotions are awoke to meet your child?

The maintenance is different aspect of the case and a father has to maintain its children in anyways. If your wife filed for maintenance you have to pay that from the date of application.
