He may, but the funds in the 401K, as well as any other assets he has, are subject to a lien by the State to collect the past-due support.
How do I go about getting a lien if he lives in another state??
Contact the child support agency in your state; they can coordinate this with the child support agency in his state. Be insistent/persistent. Good luck!

If the child's RSDI benefit is based on the obligor's SSA account, it is considered child support. If that benefit exceeds the amount ordered for child support, the obligor does not owe any additional payment.

Yes, the non-custodial parent must obey the child support order until it is modified or terminated by the court. If the child has moved out the NC parent can petition the court to have the child support order terminated. The court will review the case and render a decision.
Employers are required under state and federal law to withhold child support as ordered. If the payments are being made directly to the custodial parent, the employer would be in contempt of a court order and the court could impose sanctions. However, the custodial parent should take action immediately by reporting the situation to Child Support Enforcement. The court won't know until it is reported.
Whatever the amount that is ordered for support is still valid unless the non custodial parent files for an amendment of the order. The issue of payment for education is a separate one from the matter of monetary support.
The custodian of the children is entitled to the child support payments. The only way to keep the mother from getting the child support payments would be to have the grandparents petition the court for custodial rights - which could be extremely difficult, depending on your state.
The new husband is not responsible for the NCP's unpaid child support.
