My daughter will be turning 19 in July and that is when her child support is scheduled to end. Right now I received $63 a week for child support and $17 a week toward $23,000 back child support. I didn't start receiving child support until my daughter was about 15. My daughter's "father" lives in Rhode Island and I live in Wisconsin (I am originally from RI). What I need to know is....Do I still have the right to collect the child support in arrears when my daughter turns 19? And if so....How do I go about getting the weekly payment increased? At $17 a week......my daughter will be collecting social security by the time she gets what is owed to her. Since we live in different states, I'm not sure how I would handle it. I would hope that we would still be able to collect the back child support as it would send a wrong message if someone could dodge the law for 15 years and then be allowed to get away with all of those years of not paying.
