SSDI paid on the child's behalf, based on the obligor's account, is considered child support. The obligor would owe the difference, if any, between the amount of support ordered and the amount of SSDI, but the obligor should immediately take steps to obtain a modification to set the amount down to the amount being issued. see links

Does child support cover sports equipment and baseball equipment?
It covers the day to day expenses related to the child. Extraordinary expenses are usually addressed as part of the child support order or separation agreement. If the child has additional costs for participating in sports it can be addressed by a modification of the child support order or by agreement of the parents. Often, child support payments increase according to state guidelines as a child grows older and expenses increase. If the non-custodial parent doesn't want to contribute they do not have to without a court order to do so.
If paying child support considered extreme hardship evidence?
Child support payments alone may not typically be considered extreme hardship evidence. However, if paying child support leaves an individual with insufficient income to cover basic living expenses or creates significant financial hardship that affects their ability to meet their essential needs, it may be considered as a part of their overall financial situation and hardship evidence. The specific circumstances and financial situation of the individual will be evaluated to determine if paying child support is causing extreme hardship.
If arrears is still owed once the child turns 18 will child support payments continue until the arrears is paid off?
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.
Does child support cover school lunches?
Yes, most of the time, but sometimes there isn't as much money in the child support to cover it Actually, the intent of the law is such: If both parents made the same amount of money neither would not pay child support. In that case each would be responsible for all support costs when they are with them: food, housing, medical, clothing, everything. There would be no sharing of any costs. Since there is a disparity in the incomes the child support gives the receiver, money to provide for the children to the same extent as the payer during their time of care. What this does is maintain the level of living for the children when with both parents. If child support was meant to pay for all of one parent's financial obligations for that child, then the person receiving the child support would have to pay all of the medical cost, all of the clothing, all of the food, all of the housing expenses for both homes for the child. The person paying would pay for nothing even when the child was with them. It is a means of evening out the disparity and maintaining an even level of care for the minor children. NOT to absolve either of paying for care during their time with the children.
