You will have to go to court and show that she is capable of being emancipated. Being able to support herself is going to be one of the key requirements. If she is not able to provide for herself physically or financially, they are not likely to change the decree.
Either your daughter is emancipated or she's not. One cannot be emancipated for "education purposes." That is implicitly dishonest. If you claim your daughter as a dependent on your federal income tax, she's not emancipated. If you don't and she files her own 1040, then she is. Some states/schools require prospective students to show proof of independence from parents for at least two years. * Legal emancipation occurs when the minor reaches the legal age of majority as set by the state of residency. In Nebraska the legal age of majority is 19, in all other states the age is 18. Child support orders may reflect a different emancipation age as do laws pertaining to children who are physically and/or mentally disabled. Emancipation and the allowed tax deduction of dependent family members are two different issues.
There may not be a requirement to be emancipated once they reach the age of majority. Check the laws in your jurisdiction for specifics.
Unless you're mentally disabled somehow, you shouldn't need to be "emancipated", since you're no longer a minor (in most states, anyway).

If the daughter is an adult, and able-bodied (i.e., not disabled), then the daughter doesn't qualify to live with her mother.
18 or 19 if still in high school (except disabled children), death of child, adoption of child, emancipation of child.
Although support for most children ends when the child attains majority, completes school and/or becomes emancipated, support for severely disabled children often continues into the child's adult years.
==DO NOT . . . == transfer any property to your disabled daughter. You must speak with an attorney who is an expert on disability matters before making any changes in your daughter's status. The home may need to be transferred to a special trust in order to protect her benefits. Please consult with a disability/estate planning attorney ASAP.
