What exactly do you mean "support", do you mean how long will it get updates? We cannot speculate on these forums, however based on past releases of Mac OS I would say until at least 2 generations after Catalina. For example, High Sierra just received it's last updates right before Big Sur was released. High Sierra is 2 generations older that Big Sur. So that would be at least another 2-3 years.

Probably the only updates we'll be seeing for Catalina over the next year, maybe two, are security updates. They are finished with tweaking the system.
