If it's the same child[ren], something is wrong - there can be only one court order in effect at any one time. If you're talking about different children or sets of children, both parents/states are equally entitled to whatever support has been ordered.

How do i submit a form for back pay child support if im the child but grew up?

Most states do not allow a child to collect back support as an adult. Although the right to child support belongs to the child, support is payable to the custodial parent to assist in the care and upbringing of that child. If the custodial parent did not receive that support, then she (or he) made contributions that should have come from the other parent, and the right to collect the back support belongs to her.

In Most states child support is separate from custody.

Uunless there was a divorce that stipulates the arangement.

How come federal tax refund offset is not on child support payment history?

That is odd. Here in this state Maine it is noted as a child support payment and does go as such on records, when given to the custodial parent for past due child support owed as such a payment to child support and should be a credit towards the child support owed. You need to check with your State Child Support as you did not mention the State you are in. But where it is federal it should be with all states, not just one. But you need to check with the Child Support Enforcement of your state as to why it was not put down as a payment for past due child support and why you were not credited for the amount as of yet. You do have the right to call and ask as the non custodial parent and it is your money that was taken away. So you do have the right to know why.
