Child Support Guidelines & Calculators

Child support calculations differ by state, within the framework of a federal mandate. Judges do not meet in private to calculate child support. Rather, the Court makes a calculation using a formula set by their state.

Find state guidelines and calculators below.
Find state-by-state enforcement divisions in a separate section.
