FAQ
In Maine, child support is calculated based on three factors: 1) the Maine Child Support Guidelines established by the Legislature (this is based on the combined income of both parents); 2) health insurance costs for the child, if any; and, 3) daycare costs for the child, if any.
Because each child support order is unique to every case, there is no set minimum for what a parent must pay. Instead, the proper amount will be determined by the state's set formula to calculate a fair payment that can properly care for the children involved.
On its own, a parent's remarriage does not constitute a substantial enough change to modify a child support order because such orders are based on the gross incomes of the parents.
Maine judges must consider the child's custodial preference whenever the child is old enough to have a meaningful opinion. There is no set age when the court will consider the child's opinion; the judge decides whether the child is "old enough" on a case-by-case basis.
