Why Child Support Services?
Raising children without full financial support can mean a hardship for both the custodial parent and children. New York State law requires both parents to provide financial support for their children until the age of 21. This responsibility exists even if a parent leaves the home or has never lived with the child. The goal of the program is to get legally responsible parents to provide support for all of their children. If you are a custodial parent or legal guardian of a child who is not getting full financial support, the Child Support program can help you to collect all the support allowed by law.
