Depends on your state laws

Laws can vary according to each state. Most will not allow you to receive child support payments unless the child is still in school. If they are enrolled in college you can usually continue receiving payments until they graduate or reach a certain age. Most will stop at 21-23 if still in school. The best thing to do is either consult with an attorney in your area or call the local divorce court and talk to them.

You can because the money is owed to you even if the kid turns 40. It was a court ordered support and if everyone got off when the kid turned 18 then no one would pay. the support payer still has an obligation to pay the entire amount. It may be forced to use the the kid's college expenses but Yes. Go get it.

In the state of Florida no, but the child in question can take the case to court if it was ordered by the judge to be paid. The child will gain possesion of any property in his biological fathers name and the value will be subtracted from the total due.
