In Wisconsin the court cannot extend child support obligations beyond 19 years of age. The parents may sign an agreement to an extension of child support or payment of college tuition as part of the divorce, legal separation or annulment proceeding. Such agreements become enforceable between the parties and non-compliance may be enforced through contempt proceedings.
Yes, as of 2009. However, the Obligor Parent should file two motions with the courts:
Child Support requires BOTH parents to apportion a specific amount of their incomes to the care and upkeep of their children. If this obligation continues into the college years, it continues for BOTH PARENTS. see links below
you no longer have to pay child support once the child is 18
telll me this who is paying child support?
child support is owed until the obligation is met. regardless of the age of the child your obligation to pay support is still in effect until all back pay or arrears are met as well
Till the child turns 21
Child support in the state of California continues until the child stops going to school. including college.
Usually, the order for support will state the termination date. The order may require support for a child who is a college student.
It depends on your state. It depends on the agreement for child support that was made. Some support the child through high school or age 18 only. Otherwise, the parents have a choice as to the level of support they will provide.
Depends on the laws in your state and the child support order.
Depends on State Laws, see link below.
Not by state law, however it can be addressed in the order. see link below
Unless your divorce settlement and/or child support agreement, specifically stated that the child was to be supported until their schooling (including college) was completed you're out of luck. The state only requires the child be supported until they become an adult or, graduate from high school.
you have to pay child support as long as your child is under 18 years of age
No unless the child is under 18 or it has been previously agreed upon in a decree. Texas does not have child support for adults in college.
The child doesn't receive child support. The custodial parent does. The state of MS normally orders child support through the age of 21, if the child is still in school. However, there are situations that would be cause for termination of support. For exampe, if the child "cohabits with another person without the approval of the parent obligated to pay support". You can find the laws regarding this under MS Code 93-11-65(8a).
A parent quits paying child support when the child reaches the age of 18
None. Since the "child" is 18 and an adult the parent no longer needs to pay child support. You may wish to help your child while in college, but it is not mandatory.
