If a judge said so you have to. Often child support is required for additional years if the child is attending formal education toward a certification or degree.

Can a 20 year old child sue for child support from their father if no paternity test was given?

Sue for child support? That would be up to the mother to do. And if she did sue, she would be the one to get the money if she won, not the young adult child since the mother was the one who raised and supported the child.


Can child support be taken away if child age of 17 gets a part time job in Texas?

Will you have to pay child support for a 17 year if they choose to live with the noncustodial parent in Ohio?

Child support in Ohio usually continues until the child is 18, and up to the age of 21 if the child is in school. Whether or not you have to pay child support if the child is living with the noncustodial parent depends on the support order that it is in place Typically you can expect that you will have to expect to pay support.


Can a grandparent who has custody of a 16 year old who father a child be forced to pay child support for that child?

When the obligor parent is a minor and cannot pay. This is the case with a 12 year old Ohio boy who got a 19 year old pregnant. While she served time in jail, he or his parents must pay $50 a month in child support to the maternal grandparents who are caring for the child.


If your 17 year old daughter has a baby do you still have to pay child support?

Regardless of the situation, the obligated parent must adhere to the court order of support until the order is amended or rescinded by the court of jurisdiction. The father cannot arbitrarily stop child support payments, he will have to file a lawsuit (petition) in the appropriate state court to have the child support amended or stopped. Unless the young woman falsified the documents needed to obtain public assistance, the state's division of child support enforcement or social services would be aware that her father is paying support also, and that would in all likelihood indicate the support order now in place would hold up if contested.

If you send your child to the father for a year should you be required to send him the child support money back?

Yes, its child support. If the money is not used to support the child then its being misused. Alimony would be to support you. If the father is looking after the child, then he should not be paying child support to the mother - she doesn't have the cost of looking after the child at that time. In fact, the mother may well be in a position to send chilod support to the father - it goes both ways and she is responsible for the child just as much as the father is.
