Is anybody able to give advice on whether my ex wife is able to apply for a new order, to be paid to her (not my daughter), for my eldest daughter''s university education, or is it my daughter alone who can apply as she is now nearly 19?

As someone above said strictly speaking an application to extend an order should be made before it ceases to have any effect although in practice I have known judges use their discretion and extend an order that has recently terminated. However if that happens you can ask for the payments to be made directly to your daughter.

I already am.

Payments in excess of what the order required!
