When does child support stop?
Any child in Oklahoma is entitled to support by his or
her parents until the child reaches 18 years of age. If a child is still in
high school, child support is paid until the child graduates or turns 19 years
of age, whichever happens first. If you are paying support for more than one
child, your payment amount does not drop automatically when one child no longer
qualifies for support. You must take affirmative steps to recalculate future
support for the remaining child or children and ask the court to enter a
revised support order. When the last child no longer qualifies for child
support, the support obligation ends if there is no past due support owed.
However, an income assignment will continue in effect until the employer
receives an order or notice amending or terminating the assignment.
