Support for Adult Child with Disability

Frequently, case law decisions are being released by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and Court of Appeal. It is beyond the scope of this Q and A to answer the question of whether your husband will continue to have an obligation for the adult disabled child. Needless to say, if the child is not able to further education beyond high school, certainly that cannot be the basis of terminating child support. The whole point of paying child support after the age of majority is to assist the child to become financially independent. As for the death benefits, those benefits are only available in the event that they would be security of continued child support payments. Those benefits are not likely available on the basis of property claims.
