Q: Can Child S. Agency make a father continue paying Child Support past age 18 even if child is still in High School.
There is nothing in my final D. Decree or Plan Parenting that states this. My other concern is
can a C.S.A submitted to the court any request, document, form for a modification to continue paying past age 18 until graduation.
A: Yes. if the child is still in high school, support stops at age 20.

A: Their job is to enforce it. They can modify it if requested to, but they would've served you with notice if this was to happen. Most orders would say support is paid until the child graduates from high school, but there are exceptions. You need to speak with counsel about representation if you cannot get them to stop it and the order says it is to stop.
