The child doesn't receive child support. The custodial parent does. The state of MS normally orders child support through the age of 21, if the child is still in school. However, there are situations that would be cause for termination of support. For exampe, if the child "cohabits with another person without the approval of the parent obligated to pay support". You can find the laws regarding this under MS Code 93-11-65(8a).

In Mississippi can you pay child support directly to your daughter who will be going away to college instead of sending the payments to her mother?
The terms of the support order dictate to whom and for how long the alloted amount should be rendered. If the order does not contain such specifics, the support money can be sent to the child if said child has reached the age of majority for the state of residence.

My child support payments stopped because my daughter turned 18 she is now thinking on going to college what is the time period before child support payments start again?
In most states, the child support will automatically begin again once she has started school. You should expect the child support to begin within 2 weeks of her school start date.
Can child support be reduced due to noncustodial parent moving out of state?
That is not generally a reason to reduce child support payments. The child support guidelines where the case is filed will still be used. You should visit the court with jurisdiction and inquire there.That is not generally a reason to reduce child support payments.

In the State of Mississippi is it necessary for the parent to go to court to end child support payments when the child reaches the age of 21?
If the support order designates the age as 21 and the payments are being made to the custodial parent not to the state and payments are current then the support may be ended upon the child's twenty-first birthday. If payments are made through the state's family and children's services department or some other state agency, a notice of release from obligation must be obtained from the authorized caseworker. Biological parents and adoptive parents must support a child until: the child reaches the age of majority (and sometimes longer if the child has special needs or is in college) the child is on active military duty the parents' rights and responsibilities are terminated (for example, when a child is adopted), or the child has been declared emancipated by a court. (Emancipation can occur when a minor has demonstrated freedom from parental control or support and an ability to be self-supporting
What happens if you give additional child support payments without a court order?
If the amounts paid are over and above the amount due in a child support order it would be considered a gift to the child's mother. If there is no existing child support order you should make payments by check. If the mother eventually seeks a child support order the court can go backward to collect child support that should have been paid. If you have proof of payments they will result in a credit.
When a child is being kept by the grandparent is the grandparent's income used when calculating the father's child support payments?
The parents are responsible for child support, not the grandparents. If the grandmother has legal custody the child support payments should go directly to her via a court order. All states in the US have child support guidelines, based on income and other factors, that must be used to calculate what the non-custodial parent(s) must pay.It should be noted that if the child lives with her grandparent that grandparent is already contributing to the child's support above and beyond the payments made by the parent(s). Child support payments rarely amount to enough to completely support the child.

Your NY child support order provides for payments through a 4 year degree. Your son finished a 2 year program and is now doing another 2 year program. How long does a father have to pay child support?
See the link below. You need to review your child support order because it obviously provides for payments during college. You can obtain a copy at the court. If you still have questions you should ask to speak with an advocate at the court or a private attorney.
Can the support payments be given to the child for college if she is living at home?
Usually no. She can get an allowance but the child support goes to all living expenses including rent, electricity, food, transportation etc etc. Of course if the parents agree on that the child should have it while living at home they have to go to court and have it changed in the court where it was issued.
Under what circumstances might one contact an Attorney General about child support?
If you have any problems getting child support payments, the Attorney General should be contacted. If you don't have a court order to establish child benefit payments, you can send in an application online.
What if you pay support and back child support and the child comes to live with you?
You would still be required to pay any back child support as those payments were actually due while the child did not reside with you, and in essence your ex was accepting an iou in lieu of those payments when they should have been paid. Regarding current payments you would need to go back to court to have the child support order modified to reflect the current situation.
