No. If you owe child support enrolling in college will not make the child support go away. You need to request a modification of the child support order. The existing order is in effect until it is modified.No. If you owe child support enrolling in college will not make the child support go away.

That depends on what's in your child support order. In WI the court can't order child support during college, however, if the parent voluntarily agreed to pay it and it was placed in the child support order, then it will be enforced.
Depends on the laws in your state and the child support order.
Not exactly. In Illinois, child support cannot be ordered past the age of majority but "education support" can be. One or even both parents may be ordered to pay education support, based on the child's academic expenses. Education support must also be ordered by a judge, separately from a child support order.
The age of majority for the state is 18, if there is no stipulation in the child support order as to a continuance of support after the child reaches that age, then support can be ended. To avoid future difficulties, the obligated parent should consult with a legal advisor to determine if he or she has met their legal financial obligation.
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.
The terms of the support order dictate when child support is to end. If the court order does not stipulate a specific time the support can end when the minor child reaches the age of majority. In New Jersey the age of majority is 18.
The terms of the support order is what is legally binding. If the order states that support should continue past the age of majority in the state where the child resided when the order was mandated that should be adhered to.It is not relevant if the child relocated to a different statebefore he or she reached the age of majority.
Usually, the order for support will state the termination date. The order may require support for a child who is a college student.
It depends on where you are. In the majority of states in the US (maybe even in all of them), child support continues past 18 if the child is still in high school. In some states, child support can be ordered to continue during college.
Child support ceases when the person reaches the age of majority for the state in which they reside orthe age theorder of support cites. The legal age for Pennsylvania is 18. Support does not automatically continuewhen an 'adult" child continues his or her education, unless there is astipulation in theoriginal/most recentsupport order that ordersthe parent to do so.
The terms of the current support agreement dictate when financial support of a biological or legally adopted child should terminate. The legal age of majority for the state is 18. But, in some cases the support order will override that age and order the non custodial parent to continue payment until the child reaches a specified age or finishes (within reason) his or her education.
