The Missouri Order to Terminate Child Support is a legal document issued by a court or state agency that terminates a parent’s obligation to pay child support. This document may be used when the child turns 18, graduates from high school, or when the parents agree to end child support payments. The Order to Terminate Child Support outlines the terms of the termination and must be signed by the court or state agency. There are two types of Missouri Order to Terminate Child Support: the Voluntary Termination and the Involuntary Termination. The Voluntary Termination is often used when both parties agree to end child support payments, while the Involuntary Termination may be issued by a court or state agency if the parent has failed to make required payments.
