MONTANA CHILD SUPPORT
Addresses and Information on Enforcement of Court Ordered Montana Child Support Payment.
The Child Support Programs ensure that children receive the court-ordered financial support to which they are legally entitled. It provides services as to establishing paternity, and enforcing child support and medical support orders.
According to the state and federal law, when non-custodial parents fail to pay the child support obligation, they are subject to enforcement measures in order to collect any regular or past-due payments.
Child support orders automatically terminate when:
- The child reaches the age of 18 and graduates from high school
- Is emancipated by the court
- Has a change in legal custody
- Gets married
- Enlists in the armed forces
- Passes away
Support may not terminate if the child has severe special needs which cause him/her to remain dependent.
