Generally not. Of course, there are multiple exceptions. If the noncustodial parent begins earning significantly more income, then child support usually will increase. Most states have a "plug-in" type formula which computes child support (and one of the prime factors includes the income of the noncustodial parent).

In some states the guidelines call for an increase since it gets more expensive to raise a child as they get older. Massachusetts is one such state.

You should visit your local family court and ask for a copy of the child support guidelines in your state of perform an online search for a downloadable copy.

Child support needs to be decided on by the court. In most cases, the noncustodial parent is responsible for something. If the custodial parent makes considerably more than the noncustodial parent, monies many not even be exchanged. To resolve this issue, it is best to file papers at your court house.


Is the spouse of a noncustodial parents income relevant in Virginia?

In Virginia, the income of a spouse of a noncustodial parent can be relevant in determining child support obligations. While the primary focus is on the noncustodial parent's income, the court may consider the spouse's income if it affects the noncustodial parent's ability to pay support. However, the spouse's income is not directly considered for calculating child support amounts; rather, it may be factored into the overall financial picture. Ultimately, the court has discretion in how much weight to give this income.

In the state of Washington is there a law that says a noncustodial parent has to pay 50 of daycare.?

You should talk to a lawyer.However, I don't think the law specifically says 50% of daycare. However, the law does require the noncustodial parent to contribute to the support of the child, so financial arrangements can be imposed on the noncustodial parent to meet the child's needs within the parents' means. (Thus, the noncustodial parent might well have to pay for 100% of such things.) And this may well mean that the noncustodial parent has to provide enough funding for daycare if needed. Still, it is essential to talk to a lawyer and come up with a formal support arrangement between the two parents to avoid legal disputes in the future.http://www.child-support-laws-state-by-state.com/washington-state-child-support.html
