Usually not, as the child is usually over 18. However, that parent is still responsible for any late child support payments that they might still owe. When my brother's 19-year-old girlfriend went back to school, she had to go to court to collect several hundred dollars that her father owed in back payment. By law, the child is still entitled to the money even if it is late.
Yes, until the court order is modified.

Depends on the amount of time, but there are not specific guidelines to this, so it's up to a judge.
It would require a motion to the court at which you would be given a chance to respond. If approved, the money should go directly to the child, and if the child lives away from the custodial parent's home, than that parent should also be required to pay their part. see links below
Yes.AnswerNot without a move being made by someone with standing in the court toward this end, usually the obligor, who lacks the funding to pay an attorney to do this. In Missouri, child support continues through college, and though each parent is obligated for a percentage of their income for the care of the child, only the obligor continues to pay when the child moves away to college. And, unless a modification is done, it continues to go to the parent who no longer has the child living there.see link below
It depends on what state you are in. The state determines how child support is calculated. Now, if you each have 50% residential time with the child, then no support may be due, however, if the child lives primarily with one parent, then the parent that the child is not living with is required to pay child support. The child support amount is usually based on your combined income and is then calculated at a percentage of the total income, for example: If you make $1,000 per month, and the other parent makes $2,000 per month, then you would be responsible for 33% of the child support obligation and the other parent would be responsible for 67% of the child support obligation. If the child support obligation was $200/mo., then you would be responsible for $66/mo., and the other parent $144/mo., therefore, if the child lived primarily with you, the other parent would have to pay you $144/mo. Hope that makes sense for you. Check out your state laws on child support, you can usually find them on the web. Take care.
You can sign away your rights, but you will still owe for child support. The child is yours.
No, all child support arrearages are to be paid under the terms of the court order even if the biological parent is granted a termination of his or her parental rights. TPR decrees are not for the purpose of allowing a parent to escape his or her financial obligations to a minor child/children.
It is my understanding that if the noncustodial parent is paying child support in the state of Mo. and the child decides to live on campus/away from custodial parent while attending college and noncustodial parent is paying % of college expenses that include room and board a modification/reduction in child support may be in order. However I would like to see a court case/opinion regarding this matter.
If you were still living with the other parent, you'd be helping to support the child through that period as more than likely the child will be unable to support themselves. Living apart from the other parent does not absolve you of that responsibility towards your child.
No. If you owe child support enrolling in college will not make the child support go away. You need to request a modification of the child support order. The existing order is in effect until it is modified.No. If you owe child support enrolling in college will not make the child support go away.

because the custodial parent passed away,
Yes, you are STILL the person responsible for bringing the child into the world. You need to support them. The laws vary from state to state on parental rights and child support,So signing away your parental rights may not relieve you from paying child support.. However if one parent wants the other parent to sign away their parental rights,they can come to a legal aggreement that if the parent signs away their rights then the other parent will cancel any current child support and will not seek support for that child in the future,this of course must be done through the courts...
No, that alone is not a reason to terminate custody. The non-custodial parent should be paying child support.
Being a unfit parent and/or give up your parental rights or have them taken away, is usually not something that means you get out of paying child support.
extremely unlikely
Child support arrears do not go away. The custodial parent can continue to pursue arrears until they are paid off. State Child Support Enforcement can take your tax refund if you owe child support.Child support arrears do not go away. The custodial parent can continue to pursue arrears until they are paid off.

No. The back child support is owed to the custodial parent and the amount due doesn't go away until it has been paid.
Most often this occurs because they've been pressured by the non-custodial parent. A common tactic is for the non-custodial parent to threaten to take away custody if he or she has to pay child support. The custodial parent will then consent to not get child support to avoid a costly custody battle. This is why most states have made child support mandatory. A custodial parent can't decline or give up child support voluntarily in those states.
In this case the other parent is no longer the custodial parent. If the child is now staying with another guardian, they are now considered the custodial guardian and child support should be paid to them.
