Indiana Code (IC 31-16-6-6) sets the age of emancipation at 21 years of age. Child support does not change the age for legal emancipation.

In Indiana, child support is automatically terminated at age 21, unless the child has been determined to be legally incapacitated or an order for educational support beyond high school is established prior to the child turning 21.

If the child support order is issued though Indiana it appears that the support will stop at 21. You should consider speaking with your attorney, if for example your agreement.
