At the age provided in the court order. Normally this will be when the child turns 18 or graduates from high school, which ever occurs last.

It depends on the terms of your divorce or whatever terms were set up in family court.
In most states people are considered an adult at 18 but some states have the non-custodial parent pay for the support of the child as long as s/he is living at home and being supported by the custodial parent if the child is a full-time student. This can continue, in some states, until the age of 25.
I would think that one would want to support their child as long as needed but with a lot of men this is far, far from reality!!!!

In WV, typically until the child is 18. If the child is in high school or a vocational school (not college), then child support can be ordered up to age 21.

the legal duty stops whilst the newborn turns 18 or graduates from extreme college. If the state tries to proceed the legal duty, that is been governed unconstitutional for a verify to pay help to a newborn it truly is of grownup age. In different phrases a newborn has been declared an grownup on the age of 18, that is not constitutional so you may well be obligated to that newborn previous the age of emancipation.

18 unless the child goes to college or a vocational school. Then the payments last until 21.

If you married your sister then you would still have to pay alimony but after the divorce you would still be family. Just kidding it is 18 years old just like in every state.

Check with the courts or a lawyer. Most state that you must pay until the 18th Birthday or graduation from High School, which ever occurs last. That is what mine says in Arkansas. Good Luck.

18 or when the child completes high school. It should state in your court documents. Either parent can get a modification order.
