Once a final administrative child support order is entered, the current child support and health insurance and medical requirements continue each month until one of the following occurs:
- A state or tribal court order supersedes the order.
- The order is modified under WAC 388-14A-3925. The noncustodial parent, custodial parent, physical custodian, or DCS may petition for modification of a child support order.
- The later of a child's 18th birthday or graduation from a secondary school program or the same level of vocational or technical training, if the child is a full-time student and has not reached age nineteen (19). If the child will not graduate by his or her 19th birthday, child support stops at the end of the month containing the child's 19th birthday.
- A child is emancipated, marries, or becomes a member of the United States armed forces.
- A child or the noncustodial parent dies.
- The parties to the order marry or remarry each other, as provided in WAC 388-14A-3100(3).
