General Considerations for Determining Child Support Eligibility The needs of the child. The physical and emotional state of the child. The income of both parents. The financial condition of both parents. The standard of living the child would have received if the parents had remained together.
While joint custody reflects shared responsibilities for the child's upbringing and care, it doesn't necessarily mean that both parents are on equal financial footing. If there is a significant disparity in income between the parents, the higher-earning parent may still be required to make child support payments.
Parenting time adjustment: The law now includes a mandatory adjustment based on the amount of time children spend with each parent. This change aims to ensure that child support payments are fairer and account for the actual time each parent spends caring for the children.
How long will it take to establish a child support order? Once the noncustodial parent has been located, the DCSS has 90 days to establish a court order. The actual time varies, depending on local court availability and scheduling.
Based on the incomes of the parties and their individual percentage of the total parental income, the obligations of each parent are calculated. For example, if the total gross income for both parents is $10,000 per month, the presumptive support amount is $1,259 per month for one child.
While changes to the child support tables and parenting time adjustments will take effect in July 2024, other modifications, such as some of the new calculation rules and specific adjustments, will be gradually implemented until January 2026. This allows families and courts time to adapt to the new regulations.
