As far as I'm aware, the age of majority (the age at which you are considered to be an adult and capable of making your own decisions) in New York is 18. So, no, you don't have to be emancipated in order to move out. Is there a reason you think that you can't move out at 18? Is there something unique about your situation? Reaching the age of majority means your parents no longer have control over you and generally do not have to financially support you (although there can be exceptions). You will have to adhere to the laws of the state governing such issues as alcohol, financial agreements and so forth, reaching the age of majority does not supercede every "legal age" requirement.

If you are 17 and live in New York can you move to Kansas if you have a job and a place to live and you're going to school?

Generally, no. The age of majority in New York is 18. Until you reach the age of majority, or are otherwise legally emancipated, you need your parents' or guardian's permission to move out. Legal emancipation is somewhat easier in New York than many other states. If you don't get any financial assistance from your parents and your parents say they will give up their parental rights, you can be emancipated, with no legal procedure. The state of New York does not have an emancipation statue. You could be considered to be emancipated if you are 16 or older, self supporting, and reside independently from your parents. But the key is that your parents have to allow it. If you leave home without their permission, they can report you as a runaway and have you picked up by the authorities and returned home.

How can you get emancipated from your adopted parents who are your grandparents so you can live with your dad?

Emancipation laws vary by state. You need to check the laws of the state that you reside in. Be aware that not all states have an emancipation statute. At a minimum, you would have to provide a valid reason that emancipation would be in your best interest (*just* wanting to move in with Dad is not a valid reason) and prove that you are capable of fully supporting yourself, which doesn

In New York, you can be emancipated if you are 16 or 17 years old, not 15.

In New York can a 16-year-old be emancipated if living with their parents is causing them to be very depressed?

You can seek help, but it would be almost impossible at 16 -- the height of homronal imbalance -- to prove your parents are depressing you. To be emancipated, you need to show the court that there is sufficient need, that you can support yourself financially without any outside assistance and you have your own place to live, apart from friends and other family.

Can a 16-year-old girl get emancipated and live with her 22-year-old boyfriend if she has parental permission in Oklahoma?

At 16, you need parental permission anyways just to be emancipated. But with parental permission, I think she can live with her boyfriend. The only problem would be that she's a minor and he's not, but I think she is much less a minor when emancipated.

Can you move out in New York State without being emancipated?

In New York, Q. 1.2 Who can be considered an Emancipated Minor? Although there is no court proceeding in New York to have a young person declared an Emancipated Minor, New York Law recognizes the status of emancipation and the rights of emancipated minors. To determine whether a young person is emancipated, the following factors are critical: * The youth must be living apart from his/her parents; * The youth must be self supporting (may be receiving public benefits or child support if required by court order); * The youth is not in need/receipt of foster care; * The youth is living beyond the custody and control of the parent; * The youth is over the age of 16.
