What Age Does Child Support Stop in Hawaii? In Hawaii, the paying parent is required to support his or her children until the age of 18. However, the age limit may be extended to 23 if the child is enrolled full-time in an accredited college/university, or in a vocational/trade school.

Hawaii Revised Statute 231-51 to 231-53 allows the CSEA to setoff the State income tax refunds of those non-custodial parents (NCP) who are delinquent in the payment of child support. The debt may include delinquency in child support, medical support, and spousal support when ordered in conjunction with child support.

If there is a situation where the child support obligation should be terminated and there is no provision in the child support order applicable to the situation, the Hawaii child support order may be terminated through the Family Courts or through the Hawaii Child Support Enforcement Agency, or CSEA.

In Hawaii, if a child is in college, the court can mandate that the paying parent pay child support up until 23-years-of-age. If the child has special needs that require that they receive extra care, the court can require child support even beyond 23.

While having another child may not directly reduce your child support obligation, it can indirectly affect the amount you must pay. The courts consider various factors when determining child support, including the income of both parents, the needs of the child, and the custody arrangement.
