FAQ
To do this, you or an attorney will need to file a Motion to Terminate Withholding for Child Support in the court that issued the original family court orders. A hearing will be scheduled, where the judge will review the petition and, if everything is in order, will sign an order terminating child support.
The basic percentage guidelines for child support payments in Texas, where only a single order exists and all children of the paying party are before the Court, are: 1 child: 20% of net monthly income. 2 children: 25% of net monthly income. 3 children: 30% of net monthly income.
If the financial situation of either parent changes dramatically and they jointly agree that child support is no longer necessary, they can jointly petition the court to terminate the child support obligation. A change in the child's situation can be grounds for termination of child support as well.
If you want to terminate your child support you'll need to file a motion to terminate child support if the children age out — or a child support modification in Texas under other circumstances — in the same court that established your original child support payments.
In Texas, child support ends when a child turns 18 or graduates high school – whichever comes later. However, as with almost anything, there are exceptions to this rule.
Generally, you must be found in contempt of court before a warrant will be issued. If you owe more than six months of child support, or more than $5,000, you could be convicted of a misdemeanor. If you have not made regular child support payments in two years or owe more than $10,000, you may face felony charges.
Laws dealing with child support in Texas state that deadbeat dads who owe more than three months of past-due child support, and who do not have a voluntary repayment schedule, face mandatory license suspension.
