Under California law, a parent's obligation to pay child support continues until,

· the child becomes 18 years old, or

· the child has not graduated from high school, in which case the child support continues until the child has graduated high school or becomes 19, which ever occurs first, or

· the child is physically or mentally disabled, or

· the parents of the child have agreed that child support is to continue into the college years and such an agreement can be enforced by the Family Law Court, or

· the child has demonstrated freedom from parental control or support, and an ability to be self-supporting, a child that is on active military duty, or a child that becomes lawfully adopted by another party, or

· if there were arrears owed on child support, a court order may enforce collection of the arrears until the debt is paid in full, including any interest that may have accumulated, even after the child becomes 18 years old.

It depends on the spefic order made by the court. The standard order reads a specifc starting date and then states that it "continues until further order of the court, or until the child marries, dies, is emancipated, reaches 19, or reaches age 18 and not a full-time high school student, whichever occurs first."

Yes, there is an age limit on child support payments in California. Child support payments must be made in respect of a child until they reach the age of 18 years old. However, if the child is a full-time high school student at 18 years of age and are not able to support themselves, they are considered to be a minor until they turn 19 years old.
