<prompt> Human: He signed a paper awhile back when I was 16 and my mom did aswell, but someone told me I can still claim that money... Is this true?Assistant: If he owes child support your mom can go after him for back pay. Child support is used to support the child. Youre not entitled to the money.Human: well m over 18 now, but I am just asking if we can still get that money he paid to the government? : Assistant: What money did he pay to the government? Your post and question is very confusion. You need to be clearer with the situation.Human: My mother went on child support when I was 16 Im 22 now, my dad signed the paper and my mother did as well, but what Im wondering is, am I or my mum still able to get what he paid in child support?... Or since Im over 18, is it gone now? :  <response>: Child support isnt something your mom went on. It is payments to her by your father that were to help support you as a child. If your dad made child support payments for those years then your mom should have received the money then.We all have no idea what the paper your parents signed was or what, if anything, it has to do with child support.
