In Texas, to stop child support arrears payments once they are paid in full, the obligor must file a motion with the court that issued the child support order. This motion should include proof that the arrears have been fully paid, such as payment records. Once the court verifies the payments, it can issue an order to terminate the child support obligation. It’s advisable to consult with a family law attorney to ensure all legal requirements are met and the process is properly followed.
