    Is Child Support during College mandatory in California
    My son is graduating from high school and will be 19 in August. He is going to college in Hawaii. Do I still have to pay child support? I live in California.

    Depends on your court order for child support. Time to take a look at it.

    As Alty said this would be spelled out in the original award. It would have been up to the court or a negotiation between you and your ex.

    If the order is from Californis and not another state then it ends at 18 and graduated High School unless you had made some other agreement and got it approved by the courts. If you feel it is going to end then you need to notify child supprt office right away if that is who you are going through so it may end without delay.
