Legal Answer


Child support is based on total income for both parties - if the other party is not working that income will be imputed to minimum wage. Also is child care (75%), health insurance. The percentage for each parent is then dependent on how many children you have. The amount of support will be chosen from the Florida Child Support guidelines chart. To get the percentage each parent pays will be the monthly amount of one parent divided by the support amount. The income is based on NET.
