Re: Child support paid after child is 18
Generally you can only get child support back to the date of filing.
If your children or over 18 and have not yet graduated high school then she might be able to get child support for them till they graduate.
You owed a duty of support to the children whether she was remarried or not. However, if she didn't file for it then she can't file for it now.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
