Honestly? If the child support is in arrears, it is unlikely to be paid ever. Move on.
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.

In Arkansas, child support ends when the child turns 18 or graduates high school, which ever is later. If the child turns 18 in Feb. of his/her senior year, child support goes on until graduation. If the child turn 18 in July after graduating, child support goes on until the child's 18th birthday.
Yes, any arrears must still be paid.
Child support that is awarded and not paid can be claimed by and adult child. A child support order usually expires when the child turns 18, but anything that is arrears can still be claimed by the child.
It all depends on WHO the arrears are being paid to. If the father was paying support directly to the mother, the back support/arrears would go to the mother. The support was never owed to the child, who has no standing in it. The payments are supposed to assist the mother by helping her to raise the child until the legal age of adulthood or whatever age was specified in the support decree. The support money belongs to her and if she chooses to turn it over to the child that his her business. Legally, the child has no claim on it. ON THE OTHER HAND: If the arrears are being paid to the state - the father is simply reimbursing the state for spending taxpayers money to support her for all the time he did not pay, and neither the mother nor the child has any claim on it.
No. Child support arrears are owed to the parent.

No, only a judge can, and only if the obligee is deceased.
Passports can be suspended/denied if the amount of arrears exceeds the appropriate threshold, regardless of the child's current age.
Unlimited for non-payment of of a court order. Retroactive filed against a men who didn't know he had a child, before age 18, retroactive five years, but the program is opposed by Judge David Grey Ross, Commissioner of the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement.
