FAQs About Child Support in California

How long do child support payments last?

In California, child support generally continues until the child turns 18 years old or graduates from high school, whichever occurs later. In some cases, support may extend if the child has special needs.

Can child support be changed after a divorce?

Yes. If a parent experiences a significant change in financial circumstances after a divorce, they can request a modification through the court.

What if the other parent refuses to pay child support?

There are legal enforcement options, including wage garnishment, tax refund interception, and court-ordered penalties. A child support lawyer can help you enforce an existing order.

Does child support cover college expenses?

No, California law does not require parents to pay for college unless they agree to it in a divorce settlement.
