How is child support rewarded?
Child support is an obligation for the non-custodial parent. The non-custodial parent must pay a percentage of the combined parental income. Usually, for one child the percentage is 17%, for two children it is 25%, for three children it is 29%, and for four children it is 31%. Aside from child support, the non-custodial parent may have to pay a portion of the child’s healthcare and educational expenses.
