No, in Nevada all child support obligations end on the child’s 18th birthday unless the child is still enrolled in high school on the child’s 18th birthday. If a child is still in high school upon turning 18, the child support obligation continues until the child is 19, or when the child graduates from high school, whichever happens first. However, if a child is 18 and in college, then the exception would not apply and the non-custodial parent would no longer be required to pay child support.
