Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

This question pertains to the state of IL. I receive child support for 4 children. The oldest turned 18 last June, but I still receive child support for her from my ex because he has done nothing to decrease it. My daughter, the 18 year old, went to college full time this past fall, but plans on just working this spring semester. She moved out of my house and in with her boyfriend last Oct. My question is: Is she legally entitled to her part of the child support, and if so, when should she have started receiving it? Thanks!
