My child, or one of my children, will soon turn 18 years of age. How do I stop child support that is ordered for that child?
When the child should no longer receive support, the person who receives child support is required to notify the Seneca County Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA). Unfortunately, that person does not always immediately notify the CSEA, so you may notify the CSEA. When the CSEA receives notice from either of you, it will investigate the case and recommend to the Court about holding funds until the support can be properly adjusted or other orders made. Alternatively, you may file a motion directly with the Court to terminate the support and to hold or suspend all or some of the payment for the child who is an adult. Forms and instructions for this process (modification of child support) are available on this website at “Domestic Relations Forms.
