Legally, yes, but actually collecting that support will depend on what agreement the two countries have about child support and the persistence of each bureaucracy.

How can you get the father to pay child support if he lives in a different state?
There is a sub-system so to speak, within each state's child support agency. It is an interstate office. When parents reside in different states, support can still be obtained for the child(ren). The state where the absent parent resides will be petitioned by the state where the custodial parent resides. Once this happens, the state of the absent parent will accept (usually) the responsibility of enforcing the child support order. This entails motions in court, driver's license suspension, house liens, bank account withdrawal, and any other means deemed legal by the state.

Does child support payments stop after the child graduates high school?
The only time child support stops is when the child turns 18 and it is paid in full with no back child support owed. If there is any child support owed however it still can be collected even if the child is 18 and out of school. The only other way child support may stop is if there is also an adoption even then if there is support owed before the adoption they still get that money. This is all of course if you have a child support order through the courts or it's in a divorce decree.
If you live in Texas and have temporary joint custody but the noncustodial parent is in active duty and you've been fighting for months to enforce child support should you move in with your relatives?
A single parent and their child/children moving in with a relative will not change the status of the non-custodial parent's legal responsibility to support his or her child or children. The court bases the decision of how much support should be paid on the income of the obligated parent and what the child's or children's economic level would have been if the parents had not separated. If you know his name, and where he is stationed, you can contact that installation's Inspector General and file a complaint. There are specific service regulations that mandate a servicemember's payment of child support. If you are fighting to have court-ordered child support enforced, the Inspector General can assist with either enforcement or other resolution.
