If this is an adult child in post secondary school, then my understanding is that the support obligation continues relative to the scholarships, bursaries, personal summer income of the child, as well as both parents. As the adult child IS expected to contribute to their own costs at this point.
It no longer is a simple matter of CS tables relative to your income.
The custodial parents MUST also provide copies of school records and any financial assistance means as well as banking records, IE full financial disclosure of the child and other parent to determine how much you are responsible for, how much the child must contribute, and how much the custodial parent is to contribute.
It is not an automatic CS guideline amount any more.
Arrears are ALWAY a tricky issue as they can go either way depending on many factors, the judge you draw that day, the level of sliminess the custodial parents' lawyer is, etc, etc.
