Support Orders

Establish Child Support Orders

WaupumThe purpose of establishing child support orders is to determine how much money each parent should contribute for the care of the child.

Stipulation

Factors to think about when stipulating an agreement for a child support order:

  • Placement – where the child lives
  • Visitation – which nights of the week does the child stay with each parent
  • Custody – who makes decisions on health care, school, etc.
  • Child Support Obligation – calculated based on placement and visitation
  • Arrearage – unpaid child support
  • Past Due Support – date of application or date of review
  • Health Care – who carries insurance and who pays unpaid health costs
  • Tax Deduction – Refers to IRS Guidelines but can be addressed in court order for tax purposes of who can claim child in that fiscal year
