Under the new law, the child of one parent, but not both (but excluding step children), are called “non-joint” children.” A parent may reduce their gross income by the amount of any child support obligation for a non-joint child. If that child lives with the parent, a credit from gross income is still allowed based on Minnesota Statutes Sec. 518.717.
