Legal Question in Family Law in New York
My 18 yr old son just graduated high school and has moved out of my ex-wife's house to attend college in another state which he received a scholarship. He is also working. Am I still obligated to pay support to my ex?

Going to college and living in a dorm or off campus but being a full time student is not emancipation. You still have to pay child support.
