👨‍👩‍👧 Does Child Support End at 18? Not Always.

Many parents assume child support automatically stops when a child turns 18—but in Illinois, that’s not always the case.

In fact, support may continue if:
✔️ Your child is still in high school (until graduation or age 19)
✔️ There are college or educational expenses involved
✔️ Your child has a disability requiring ongoing support
✔️ There is unpaid child support (arrears) that must still be paid

Understanding your obligations—and your rights—can help you avoid costly mistakes.
