When does child support stop if you have 2 children?
Each state has different laws. Most states the non-custodial parent pays child support for each child until the child turns 18 or graduates high school. Some states require you to pay until the child graduates college. You should go on the website for your state for more information.
Does father have to pay child support if child lives on campus?
If the child support order provides that the non-custodial parent pay then yes, of course. Living on campus implies the child is in college and needs the support of both parents. Living on campus costs money. Costs don't go down when your child enters college.
Do you have to pay child support on your seventeen year son when your daughter is eighteen and going to college?
This depends on what it is you're asking. Does you state require support beyond high school? If it does, than make a request to child support enforcement to split the payment so that part if it can go to her, directly. See link for laws on child support beyond high school. If child support does not extend beyond high school, you will need to do a modification. see related question.
Do you have to pay child support after they reach 18?
Payment of child support depends on the original paternity of divorce agreement. Usually, if the child is a full time student, child support continues - particularly if the child is still in high school. If the child has moved away from home to go to college there may be some difference from the agreement. In terms of a relationship, continuing to help support the child through college is a big win.
If my child is 20 years old and lives on a college campus can the child support go straight to him instead of the mother?
First of all, court ordered child support is paid until a child reaches the age of 18 so it would go to the custodial parent who is caring for the child If this is back child support from before the child turned 18, it would still go to the custodial parent who is on the court order. You would still owe any unpaid balances to the custodial parent.Obviously, the parent supported the child until the age of 18 and is entitled the money she should have been receiving for child support. If you are volunteering the support to help the child with college, then you can give it to the child yourself.
To what age is child support paided?
18 years old if they move out. If they go to college it can go to age 22 or 23.
Divorced parents in Georgia have joint custody and child lives with the mom and mom's boyfriend but now child is 18 and attends local college part time so does dad still have to pay child support?
most likely yes....non custodial parent usually pays child support until the child is out of college. That means if the child wants to get their masters and go to college for 8 years non custodial parent pays child support the whole time.
What is the cut off for child support?
It varies by state. Example: In NY, you must pay child support until the child is 21 (unless the child becomes emancipated...and that's usually hard to prove anyway). In Texas, child support is paid until the child is 18. In Pennsylvania, you also pay until the child is 18 UNLESS they are a full time student in college (in which case you have to pay until they're 21). I have always tried to do my best to support my children financially ( and yes, i do pay child support). And I will ALWAYS try to help them regardless of what age they are. However, for the state to have a law that a parent should pay until the child is 21....i think that is B.S.!!! They can go to college, go in the military, get a job, smoke, get a tattoo, vote, have sex....all these things but they still make a parent pay child support until 21?? I don't agree with it.
Why do you have to pay child support and pay for your child to go away to college?
If you were still living with the other parent, you'd be helping to support the child through that period as more than likely the child will be unable to support themselves. Living apart from the other parent does not absolve you of that responsibility towards your child.
