Calculating Child Support Obligations
When determining the amount of child support to award, the courts will consider:
- Number of children in the marriage
- Gross annual income
- Taxes withheld
- Child care expenses, including healthcare, medical expenses, special needs, legal care, education, and other daily living costs such as food and clothing
- Spousal support or child support paid to a former spouse
