How long do you have to pay child support in Ohio?

In Ohio, child support generally ends when the child reaches the age of 18, graduates from high school, dies, gets married, joins the military, or becomes emancipated. However, there are some exceptions to these general rules.

For example, child support may be extended beyond the age of 18 if the child has a physical or mental disability that prevents them from being self-supporting. In addition, child support may be modified or terminated if the circumstances of either the child or the parent change significantly.

If you have any questions about your child support obligation, it is important to speak to an attorney.
