FAQ
In Pennsylvania, child support obligations normally last until the child turns 18 years old or graduates from high school, whichever comes later; however, child support can continue past the age of 18 and graduation if the child has certain physical or mental conditions that require continued support.
How are child support papers served? Usually, papers must be handed directly to the respondent. This can happen anywhere: at their home, office, etc. The respondent does not have to agree to accept the papers but should be made aware of what's handed to them.
You cannot personally serve the other party. A competent person over the age of 18, who is not a party on the case, or a family member; can serve the other party for you. This person could be a friend, sheriff, constable, etc. You can also serve them via mail or serve their attorney.
Self-employed parents must maintain careful records of their income sources and business expenses. These records serve as evidence during child support proceedings. The court may scrutinize bank statements, tax returns and business records to establish a comprehensive financial picture.

The party seeking support for a child in their care must file a Petition for Support at the Domestic Relations Section or can file an E-Services support petition online at the PA Child Support Website.
(2) Upon willful failure to obey an order for income withholding, the employer, or an officer or employee of the employer, may be held in contempt and subject to other remedies provided by law. 23 Pa. C.S. § 4348(k)(1) provides that contempt is punishable by jail or fine.
The Guidelines set a minimum child support amount of $91.00 per child per month.
However, if you are currently supporting another child or a spouse (for example, if you have remarried and had another child), the court can order that up to 50% of your wages be withheld for child support. The amount withheld from your check – about a third of your wages – is well within these limits.
