My state is New York.

Where can I find the necessary forms to fill out and file to terminate child support for New York State.

Thanks,

Our situation is that my husbands son will be 21 years old soon. He is not in arrears on his support. It is garnished right out of his check weekly, and the support payments are sent directly to the custodial parent, and I know it just won't stop automatically when the child turns 21. I assume we have to file the paperwork with Family Court and show proof the child is 21 years old.

If we file the paperwork with the Family Court is there going to be a cost to us for doing this? And how far in advance do we need to do this? I also assume it will take awhile to get the signed paperwork back from the court, so we can give it to his employer and terminate his Income Execution. I just want to have everything ready so we don't have surprises waiting for us if we wait til right before he turns 21. Also, what happens if we do not have a copy of his birth certificate? Will the mother be requested to produce one, I know they have his birthdate on record at the Support Collection Unit where my husbands payments go through.

Thanks,

Obviously, whoever owes the child support (not you or pa or grandma etc.) needs to be talking to family court and asking the questions above.

For the most part, there are no filing fees in Family Court, and when there are, they are a fraction of what the other courts charge. You can get blank copies of all the necessary forms from the Clerk at the courthouse.
