Child support is paid until a child becomes emancipated. In the State of Mississippi, the age of emancipation is twenty-one (21). Also, emancipation may refer to the emancipation that occurs before the child reaches the age of majority. NOTE: The noncustodial parent, not MDHS, shall petition the court for the relief sought.

Only if there was child support owed from before the child was 18.

Child support only gets paid up unitl 18 years of age, unless there is money past due.
