Totally depends upon on the laws governing the state.
Make an official request from child support enforcement. see links
This is dependent on the reasons. If a man suspects a child is his, than he should file to have the test done, regardless of whether she is demanding support or not. She can wait up to 23 years to nail him for support. see link below
Make an official request with the court that issued the child support order.
Child support in Tennessee can be reviewed and modified up to the age of majority.
It either ends when the child is 18 or the child support agreement would say otherwise. Legally he has been on his own for years.
Yes, and the mother should request it retroactively.
Yes, there is no limitation on beginning a case for child support. It's unlikely that you will get much, or anything at all in arrears from the 5 years that you did not request it, but child support is the right of the child and each parent is financially responsible for their children.
no the child is already 18 then they are legally an adult and the parent doesnt need to pay child support
In my sister's case the child support payments are only defered until he serves his 2-10 years. They will only continue to add up until he has payed the amount in full. This would also depend on what state you are in. We are in MI.
Probably not worth your time. At eighteen, you are legally an adult and should be supporting yourself. Child support is usually an agreement between parents to provide for their child.
Yes, but you need to file a child in need of care motion.
It depends on the laws of the specific jurisdiction, but in many cases, parents are only legally obligated to pay child support until the child reaches the age of majority, which is typically 18. Some jurisdictions may require child support to continue while the child is still a dependent, such as through college, but this varies.
