You do if you live in Connecticut or Hawaii. Other than that it varies between states. In Connecticut a child over the age of 18 may receive court-ordered child support to go to college until turning 23. If turning 23 during the middle of an academic year, the child may receive child support until the end of that academic year.
In California a parent can only be forced to pay college-related child support if an agreement has already been written between the parents to do so. Otherwise, a parent is under no obligation to pay college-related child support.
Please ask again and tell what state you are referring to or consult an attorney in your state.
child support payment may be suspended or modified during this time. It is easier to do this by stipulation (with the other parent). The child should be receiving his/or her own check through SSI. If not, you can request relief from the Court. If so, child support can temporarily be modified to meet the amount the child is receiving from SSI. It is always best to approach the other party first. Many things can be accomplished with an agreement.

A spouse is almost never required to directly pay a new spouse's child support. However, depending on the state, a new spouse may be indirectly forced to pay. For example, they may not be able to garnish your pay check, but they can take money from a joint bank account, a joint tax refund, a joint loan, and basically any sort of financial asset that has both of your names on it.
Some states also calculate child support based on "household" income. When you move in with your new spouse, your income is added to theirs and that new, larger amount is then used to calculate a larger monthly child support payment. Some states expressly forbid this though, so again, it depends on the state that child support was ordered in.

Thanks and Have a wonderful day!!!
