Iowa SF513 prohibits courts from ordering postsecondary education subsidies for children under dissolution of marriage orders.

Iowa SF513 amends the state code to prohibit courts from ordering either party in a dissolution of marriage to pay a postsecondary education subsidy for a child. The bill applies to any support order, decree, or judgment entered or pending on or after July 1, 2025. It does not allow for the modification of existing orders, decrees, or judgments that provide for a postsecondary education subsidy. The changes ensure that courts cannot mandate such payments under temporary orders or final judgments.
