Child support after 18 years of age
What you must know
As the paying parent for child support, you may be wondering what happens once your child turns eighteen. Do child support payments stop automatically? Just because your child turns eighteen doesn’t automatically mean you stop paying child support.
You will only succeed to cancel child support if:
- Your child is of full age (18 years old) and;
- Your child is financially independent (working and preferably out of school)
Our family lawyers can help you collect all the necessary documents to request the cancellation of child support if the two (2) above mentioned factors apply to your situation. With one consultation, you will get a general idea of the process and the cost for cancelling child support.
