Unfortunately child support stops whenever the supporting parent's income stops, so unless the father is able to collect income from a disability plan or unemployment while they are getting treatment you probably won't see any money until he's back at work. The order for child support however continues, and any payments that he misses during the time that he is in rehab will still be owed.

If father stops working and is supported by new wife what happens to child support for previous child to ex wife?
If the father stops working and is financially supported by his new wife, it does not automatically cancel or eliminate his obligation to pay child support for his previous child to his ex-wife. The father would still be legally responsible for fulfilling his child support obligations, and the court would evaluate his financial situation and make any necessary adjustments based on the new circumstances.
What if the father goes to prison does your child support stops?
If the father goes to prison his responsibility for child support does not stop. For all practical purposes, he will have no income and will not be able to pay you one cent. Do not expect to get any money out of him while his is in prison.

Does a child who is 18 in Michigan have to see her father if he is still paying child support?
No. Visitation and child support are 2 separate issues and the child (although now adult) does not have to see the parent. The parent is always obligated to support the child anyway. Child support usually stops from age 18 though but in some states it can be prolonged when the child is in college.
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.
If a father signs away all rights and stops child support does the mother have to agree?
Yes. The court's job is to decide what is in the child's best interest. Even if the father does not want to see the child, why would it be in the child's best interest to give up child support for the child? There are, of course, exceptions, such as when the father is so bad for the child that giving up child support is better than having him around.

Some actions of minors can stop child support, though this can vary according to state law.
