Because your child has decided to approach life defferently, does not exclude you from paying child support.

Will you have to pay child support for a 17 year if they choose to live with the noncustodial parent in Ohio?
Child support in Ohio usually continues until the child is 18, and up to the age of 21 if the child is in school. Whether or not you have to pay child support if the child is living with the noncustodial parent depends on the support order that it is in place Typically you can expect that you will have to expect to pay support.
How does a 19 year old change it so they receive their child support rather than a parent?
You don't have rights to child support--it is paid to provide for your housing and food with the custodial parent while you are in school. If the other parent agrees to pay you a stipend when you move out, that is up to them.
If a 21 year old full time student lives on their own is the custodial parent entitled to child support?
If the support order included a provision continuing support while the child was enrolled in college it does not matter where the child is living, as the support is to reimburse the custodial parent for the non custodial parents share of the child's expenses. If the child is attending school the custodial parent is likely still paying expenses for that child regardless of where they are living
If your 18-year-old son dropped out of school and moved out of the custodial parent's house a year ago is it legal for the custodial parent to re-enroll him in school so the support will continue?
Yes, if the non custodial parent wanted to file suit to have the support order amended or rescinded it should have been done when the child dropped out of school and/or moved from the custodial parent's residence. A child support order is valid until the child reaches the age of majority for the state where the order was issued or the age stated in the support order or unless the order is changed or ceased by order of the court.
If a 17 year old moves out of parent's house and lives with a friend then turns 18 can the friend collect child support from the 18 year old's parent since the 18 year old is still in school?
The parents of a child do not have an obligation to pay child support to whoever the child decides to live with. Only if the court grants custody to another person and orders the parents to pay child support would an obligation arise.
Who gets the child support if the 17 year old moves out of the house?
Neither parent should receive any child support for a child that no longer lives with either parent. If possible, the parents should consider what they can do to directly help the child who has moved out to allow them to finish school and/or get a college or university education.
Can a 37-year-old adult child sue their biological parent for child support My parent was on government assistance when I was a child.?
No, Michigan has the maximum law at age 23 for filing.
If the child lives in a different state then the mother because they are in a private school all year round does the mother get child support?
presumably if the mother is considered the custodial parent then they are still paying expenses for the child and would thus be entitled to child support to defray a portion of those costs.
Do we have to pay child support in the state of Illinois for a child that does not live with the custodial parent does not go to school and has a child of her own. She is 15 Please advise?
You should probably consult an attorney. Normally, consultations are free. If the child is supposed to be living with the custodial parent, and is not (and you can prove it), then you may be able to prepare and file a petition to terminate/abate the support. The fact that the 15 year old has a child of her own is not an issue. The 15 year old is not emancipated.
How long do you pay child support in Nova Scotia?
For as long as the child is dependentYou pay child support in Nova Scotia for as long as the child is a minor and in school....ie - the child turns 18 but is still in high school until June of that year...you would continue to pay child support until the child graduates from high school. If the child continues on to post secondary schooling and lives at home with the custodial parent, the other parent continues to pay child support for the duration of the education process. However, if the child moves out to his or her own residence during the post secondary schooling process, the paying parent may then make the child support payments directly to the child.Hope this helps!Actually the age of majority in NS is 19, and under the divorce act you must continue paying while the person you support is still considered a "child of the marriage". basically until they are 19, if they are living with and under the care and control of the payee...even if they work and do not go to school, you will have to continue paying child support. You must have your child support order varied in order to stop the payments.
Can a parent go back and collect child support for a previous year if the current signed Parenting Agreement filed in Arizona each parent waived child support in lieu of equal time with child?
You can not get child support for the previous year if there is a filed court document stating that you agreed not to get any. The best you can do is file for a change so that child support might be able to start, but it would not be retroactive.
Does the non cusdodial parent have to pay child support if their 18 year old is still in high school but no longer living with cusdodial parent in Texas?
The non-custodial parent must follow the child support order until it has been modified by the court. That parent can visit the court and file for a modification due to the change in circumstances. However, the court is not likely to change an order while the child is still attending high school. You should visit the court and ask to speak with a clerk or advocate.
