Yes. Don't assume that support will end automatically. My suggestion: Get a court order terminating support as of a specific date, with a finding as to the amount of arrearage, or that there is no arrearage. Then send certified copies to the child support agencies in your State and the State where the child lives and/or where any other orders were entered in the matter.

The mother should visit the local family court and ask to speak with an advocate.
