The Arizona 2011 Child Support Guidelines are a set of guidelines used to calculate child support payments in the state of Arizona. These guidelines take into consideration the income of both parents, the number of children, health insurance costs, childcare costs, and other relevant factors. The guidelines provide a standard to determine the amount of child support that should be paid and can be used by both parents to ensure that a fair amount is paid. There are two types of Arizona 2011 Child Support Guidelines: the Standard Guidelines and the Income Shares Model. The Standard Guidelines use a basic formula to calculate child support payments based on the income of the non-custodial parent and the number of children. The Income Shares Model takes into account the total income of both parents and distributes the amount of child support among both parents based on their respective incomes. The Income Shares Model is more detailed and is often used when one or both parents have high incomes.
