If there is a significant disparity in income between the parents, the higher-earning parent may still be required to make child support payments.
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.
