Is there a statute of limitations for collecting child support in Texas?
Texas has no SOL for child support it must be “paid in full”. If there is no court order for support the petition must be filed before the child or children reach the age of 18. If there is a court order the support obligation must be paid in entirety. This means that even when the child/children reach the age of majority (18) any amount in arrears still must be paid. The court will determine if it is to be paid to the child or to the custodial parent or a combination thereof.
