It depends on your state. In most places it ends when the child reaches and 18 and also graduates from high school but not after their 19th birthday. In some states it is 21.

A Separation Agreement signed by the parties at the time of the divorce can provide for child support until the child has completed an undergraduate degree in a timely manner. Also, some states are extending the period for child support to cover higher education.

Is it possible to file a child support petition where the father lives?

Possible, yes but not necessary. The usual procedure is for the custodial parent to file suit for child support in the court of jurisdiction where they reside with the minor child/children. If the support order is granted the judgment is filed against the non custodial parent in the city or county and state where he or she lives. All U.S. states and commonwealths honor and enforce child support orders as long as the judgment order is mandated by a U.S. court.
