If parents have joint custody of a child is the mom entitled to child support?
In Wisconsin, it depends on who has physical placement of the child. It may also depend on who has the higher income of the both parents. It is possible that even with joint custody you will still have to pay child support to the other parent. Joint custody simply means both parents have equal rights in making decisions for the well-being of the minor child/children. The person with whom the child resides the majority of the time is the person who generally receives support to be used for the child's needs. If the time is equally divided the court will decide if and how any child support will be allocated, based upon income levels of the parents and the needs of the child.
Does receiving child support mean you're the custodial parent?
No, sole custody fathers can also be ordered to pay child support if their income is significantly higher. This is common in California.

Do you still have to pay child support if you have joint custody?
Joint Custody and Child SupportJoint legal custody has no effect on child support. With joint physical custody there is still a payment of child support from the higher income parent to the lower income parent, usually determined by a sliding scale based on time with each parent (procedures vary among states). Because both parents provide for the child directly, the payment between parents may be less, but the financial support to the child is the same or higher than with sole custody.

If the father makes more money then the mother does he have a solid case to obtain full legal custody in a divorce?
No, If both Parents are deemed fit to raise and take care of their child they have the right to custody. Depending on where the Mother and Father live plays a role in how much you may get to see your child. Laws also vary from state to state. Check your Local State's Laws on Custodial Rights.AnswerMost jurisdictions lean toward physical custody in the mother with either legal custody in the mother or joint legal custody with both parents. There is a wide ranging understanding that mothers are generally more nurturing with young children. Courts do not make custody decisions based on income (but see child support comments), especially to separate a child from her mother because her father has a higher income.The reality is that fathers generally make more income than mothers. It follows they also generally have a better capability to acquire future assets. The father's higher income will be considered when the court issues the child support order pursuant to state guidelines and also in the distribution of marital property.It should be noted that in order to obtain full custody the father would need to show the court that the child would be better off with him due to some unfitness on the mother's part.
