In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.

My husband and I live in New Hampshire and the kids live in Arizona. He gave up his rights and we still have to pay.AnswerYes and no. It is not an automatic process and the mother of the child must apply for child support and obtain a court order. Even if you have relinquished your parental rights, you may still be required to pay child support by the court. Whether or not you are required to pay for child support depends on the decision of the court, which makes the determination based on the best interests of the child. This is done to prevent a parent from giving up his or her rights over the child in order to avoid paying child support. Be advised that even if you live in another state, you are still responsible for any child support payments ordered by an Arizona court. If you are delinquent enough on payments you may face additional civil proceedings, incarceration, wage garnishment, tax intercept, professional and driver's license suspension, and you may even be subject to extradition to Arizona.
