What’s in it

This bill provides that the definition of “support” or “support payments” for orders entered on or after July 1, 2021, includes obligations for support of a child until age 18, or for a child who is engaged full-time in completing high school graduation or equivalency requirements so long as such full-time engagement is continuous and reasonably expected to result in completion of the requirements, until the child reaches years of age or completes high school graduation or equivalency requirements, whichever occurs first.

Read the full explanation

Current law provides that the obligations for support or support payments include support for a child who is between the ages of and years who is engaged full-time in completing high school graduation or equivalency requirements in a manner which is reasonably likely expected to result in completion of the requirements prior to the person reaching years of age. The bill makes conforming changes throughout the Code to reflect changes in the definition of “support” or “support payments” in the bill.
