Under certain conditions, Illinois family law courts make it possible to terminate child support obligations prior to the date of the child's emancipation, typically at age 18 or following the completion of high school whichever later occurs.
Some conditions for terminating child support can include:
- A modification of the original custody agreement
- A substantial increase in the amount of parenting time under a joint physical custody agreement
- Inability to meet child support obligations due to physical or mental disability
- Voluntary or involuntary termination of your parental rights
- Voluntary termination of the obligation by the custodial parent, under certain conditions
- Incarceration that will not allow you to continue meeting obligations
