In North Carolina does child support obligation end when the child is going to college?

Answer 1

The terms of child support obligations are defined in the current court order. The matter of the child reaching the age of majority is not always applicable, all support orders state when the support ends and under what circumstances.

Support orders can include stipulations that payment should continue as long as the person is enrolled and active in an educational institution even if that person has reached the state's legal age of majority.

Answer 2

Many factors are taken into account in determining when child support payments will end. In some situations, it is as simple as the child reaching the age of majority. In others, payments may not end until the child has graduated from college if that arrangement was agreed upon by the parents in their separation agreement. You should review that issue with an attorney who specializes in family law in North Carolina.
