The child support should terminate by law when your daughter turns age 18 (unless

you're further obligated under the terms of your divorce to continue to pay for her further education or training up to ages 22 or 23).

As for your spousal support obligation, since I have no idea as to what its

terms may be, I can't offer an opinion on it. (You would seem well advised, nevertheless, to at least arrange for a consultation with an attorney who is appropriately experienced and knowledgeable concerning Virginia domestic relations matters and who should be able to advise you on this as well as related issues, accordingly.)
