Introduction

The Child Support Recalculation Program helps parents with child support orders meet their legal obligations to update the child support they pay based on their income.

We annually recalculate child support based on current income tax information. Our goal is to help parents keep child support levels in line with income, so families can avoid the time and expense of asking the courts to review their child support orders.

We can recalculate:

  • table (monthly) amounts of child support
  • proportionate shares of special or extraordinary expenses
