Actually yes because the child is still living under the other parent's roof, and still attending school and still has expenses they need clothing,food, entertainment, allowance, ect., but if they graduate and don't plan on attending college then the payments could be stopped but if they plan on going then you are just stuck paying it until they graduate college to help with tuition and other fees!

It depends on the state & divorce decree. In many states cs ends at 18 or 19, or upon graduation from high school. Some only base it on the age, some base it on the later of the two. Some states have laws through college.

Yes, by court order in cases, e.g., where the child is going to college or is severely disabled.

In general, yes. However, this varies depending on State law and the language of the order for support.

Is a divorced father obligated to pay for college in Indiana?

If you were order by the court to pay child support, that support will continue until the child either graduates college or stops attending. I do not believe the court can order you to pay for college. However, as a father you should be willing to help.


What if your son will be 18 next year but will graduate when he is 19 He is living with his mother right now but wants to come live with you when he turns 18 Can you collect child support if this take?

Child support does not automatically go to the person with whom the child is living, it goes to whomever the court order says it does. If the court order says you have to pay child support until the child graduates, then you must pay child support until the child graduates, even if the child is actually living with you. You could almost certainly petition the court to change this, but you'd have to take the trouble to actually do so.

Each state has different laws. Most states the non-custodial parent pays child support for each child until the child turns 18 or graduates high school. Some states require you to pay until the child graduates college. You should go on the website for your state for more information.

Depends on what your decree says. In most cases, child support is paid until the child reaches 18 years of age or when the child graduates high school, which ever comes first.
