FlagI am 18 years old and my mom recieves child support from my dad. He is ordered to pay until I graduate college even though my mom is not helping me at all with college tuttion or helping me pay my bills. I am still in high school and I was wondering if after I graduate I could start recieving the support. My dad is okay with this agreement if that helps at all.
You should contact an attorney in your area. If this is pursuant to a written agreement between your mom and dad you have certain rights as a third party beneficiary to that agreement. I do not understand your last statement. Is your Dad okay with your mom taking money and not applying it to your college expenses? If it is straight child support, it helps defray your mom's cost to provide you with shelter, food, clothes and the like.
