    Post-Majority Child Support
    My question involves child support in the State of: Indiana

    I am a NCP now residing in Illinois, CP now resides in Kentucky. Support order originally entered in Indiana -- no provisions in order specifying when support is to terminate.

    1.) Can I safely assume that although neither party resides in Indiana any longer, the statues of that state still apply? In other words, that support continues until child reaches age 21, in accordance with Indiana law.

    2.) Child is beginning college and CP and I would like to establish a post-majority support arrangement. How are these typically framed in such a situation? Where are payments directed and are they apportioned according to when child is at home versus on campus? I'm just looking for a high-level framework based on what you have seen.

    Thank you for your time and input!

    1) Yes.
    2) The following link provides an explanation for handling situations such as yours. There is also a "Post Secondary Education Worksheet" at the bottom of the page that may be helpful in working out the financials.
