Walk It Through: Turning Eighteen in Vermont

A primary before the birthday, a will, a marriage license, and a rifle at the counter.

A high school senior will turn 18 in October, after the summer primary.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

A Vermont resident turning 18 during an election year. Alcohol and cannabis at 21, contracts made as a minor, and emancipation are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
