Child Support Calculations in California
California law requires both parents to share the responsibility of financially supporting their child. The amount of financial support that each parent is required to pay is based upon his or her current situation. In California, child support is calculated using a standard formula.
Factors included in the standard formula include:
- Annual gross income earned by both parents
- Required expenses of both parents, including property taxes and mortgage obligations
- Tax deductions
- Amount of time each child spends in the physical custody of a parent
- Child care costs incurred by parents
- Required union dues
- Health insurance costs
- Mandatory retirement contributions
- Income of a new spouse
The more money a parent has, the more she or he can contribute to child support. Failing to provide the required financial support to one’s child may result in criminal or civil penalties.
