How do you transfer child support payments directly to your child and at what age does child support stop?
You cannot pay child support directly to your children. It usually stops at 18 but differs slightly between states and can be prolonged if the child is in college. You need to check your particular child support order, separation agreement and state law. Child support is paid to the custodial parent and not the child. After 18, and usually when the child is attending college, the parents may be able to have the support order modified to be paid to the child if they both agree.
