Yes. They don't care where you income comes from. Your obligation goes with you from State to State.

It falls under the long arm statute of the Uniform Child Protection Order. A state will abide by another states judgment of child support. It was set up for parents who try to leave the state to hide from their obligation.

Of course they can, and they will.
