The age at which child support is ended is determined by the terms of the support order and nothing else. The order will either state "at the age of legal majority" or a specific age. It will also include the terms applicable to health insurance, education, and so forth. In some states it is necessary for the parent paying the support to have the order officially rescinded when the child reaches the designated age. Here is other input: * At the age of 18 or until they graduate from college. My uncle had to pay child support for his daughter and then at age 18 she wanted to go to college. He had to contiune with his child support payments until she finished college. She is almost a dr now. * Usually at age 18, unless you're agreement provide support if the child is a full time college student.

Clarification:
Child support laws vary from one state to another, and from one situation to another. For example, in some states child support is only required until the child reaches 18, but may go longer if the child is in school. There's not a single, definitive answer that applies to each state.

Child support should stop at the age specified by the child support order, which could be 18 years, or after high school, and this varies from one state to another.

Usually reasons for child support to end are because the child graduated from high school, oe the child has married. If the order does not designate a specific date for the support to end, the termination date would be when the child reaches the legal age of majority of the state in which they reside. Please be advised, in most states a motion must be filed with the court to cease support on the grounds that the minor child has now reached the state's legal age for being an adult.
