In some cases joining the military is considered emancipation, ie. the custodial parent is not supporting the child any longer, thus it can stop. You must check your state laws.
The courts will mostly likely consider a child who enters the military as "emancipated," and, therefore, terminate child support. But don't stop paying on your own!
No, but that parent must return to court to get the order terminated.
No.
Emancipation is the age of adulthood. In Nevada that is 18. If the child gets married, that is considered emancipation.
The age of majority in Mississippi is 21. Generally if the minor marries or enters the military they are considered emancipated and child support is no longer be valid.
Generally, with the majority or emancipation of the younger/youngest child.
As of 2014, there is no law that allows for the emancipation of a minor child from parents. Parents are required to care for the child until he or she reaches 18 years of age.
This largely depends on the language of the order for support and the rules in the child's state about age of majority and emancipation. Emancipation generally means that the child is self-sufficient; having her own apartment does not, in itself, constitute emancipation.
In the state of Pennsylvania the conditions for emancipation are completing a Petition for Emancipation form. The minor must show that they can support themselves because if the emancipation is granted the parents are no longer responsible for the support of the child.
Depends. Legal age of emancipation, for child support purposes, is 21 in MS. Meaning that you are obligated to pay child support until the child reaches 21. Exceptions do apply such as, the child getting married or moving out on his/her own, not maintaining a full time student status or joins the military full time before the age of 21, then child support, by order of the courts, can possibly be stopped.
You can stop paying child support once the child is emancipated. Emancipation can come in many guises. One of the classic types of emancipation is when the child joins the military. Historically, the three types of emancipation were 1) when the child reached the age of majority (no longer true - the age of majority is generally 18, and there may still be child support to be paid, depending on the state); 2) when the child marries; 3) If the child joins the service (this can be military or the job corps - but if the child leaves the service, he can be "unemancipated" under certain conditions). There are other ways a child may be emancipated, but the main point to consider is whether or not the child is financially self-sufficient. If he is not, the court will be less likely to grant emancipation, because the court does not want to see the child become a ward of the state. It's important to know that emancipation is a legal act, and should be determined by the probate court. If you think your child is emancipated, and you want to stop paying support, check with your attorney, and ask the court to declare the child emancipated. Also, be sure to check your divorce agreement, to see if there are any insights on when the child is considered emancipated. State law will trump your agreement, if you've given away the rights of the child (you can't do that).I think such a child would be considered self-sufficient and, therefore, emancipated, and the court would likely grant a motion to terminate support.
