What Does Child Support Cover?
Oklahoma child support covers a wide variety of expenses. The court will look at the parents’ gross incomes, possible investments, savings and many other economic indicators when making decisions about the potential child support order. After the court has been presented with that information, it will then then determine how much child support the non-custodial parent will need to contribute for not only living expenses, but also child care, medical care, dental care and many other child raising expenses.
If the support order isn’t providing enough, and you and your child are struggling, it’s time to talk. We’re here to listen to your unique child support situation.
How Long Will My Child Receive Support?
A child is entitled to support in Oklahoma by the parents until the child graduates from high school or until the age of twenty (20) years, whichever occurs first. If the family court finds the child needs substantial care and personal supervision because of a mental or physical disability, child support can continue for a longer period of time.
