You should not wait, but file for a modification...
Re: family law
You must file a complaint for Modification requesting the child support be terminated or suspended if your child is not enrolled as a full time student. Good Luck!
Re: family law
It depends on what your separation agreement states or what your divorce decree says. You might not have to file a modification if you were not having your wages garnish or paying through the DOR.
