I would say , Yes. The reason is , sometimes if a child graduates, the mother may not inform the paying parent that the child did not continue with higher education.So the money continues until the paying parent finds out the child is out of school for good. Usually child support stops at age 18 unless the child has continued his/her education or has special medical needs, etc etc.Tell me if this is incorrect.

Can a 17 year old sue for back child support?
Yes, as an adult you can sue a noncustodial parent for back child support. However it is a different story if the noncustodial parent has never been ordered to pay child support. You can still sue them for a percentage of their assets. I am currently working on a case in which my client is sueing his father for 15 years of back child support. Any divorce lawyer can handle this case for you.
How can you collect your child support overpayment?
Depends on the state. Texas allows overpayments to be requested from the person who received them although they knew they were not owed. If not, you can sue them. Check you state laws.
If an adult child moves into her boyfriends' house does the custodial parent still get child support?
Unless there are unusually circumstances, once a minor becomes an adult under the laws of the state in which he or she lives (or as stated in the support order) child support ends. If he or she has established residence outside the custodial parent's home with the approval of the custodial parent, the obligated parent should petition the court to have the support order amended or rescinded. Child support money is for the support of minor children and not "owed" to the custodial parent. The custodial parent does have the legal right to sue the obligated parent for any arrearages or "extra" expenses incurred while the minor child was in his or her care.
Can a 20 year old child sue for child support from their father if no paternity test was given?
