New York State Child Support Calculator
As in most other states, a mathematical formula is used in New York State to calculate basic child support.
The formula for calculating child support takes into account the
- non-custodial parent's gross income
- less FICA,
- and applies the following percentages:
- 17% for 1 child
- 25% for 2 children
- 29% for 3 children
- 31% for 4 or more
The courts can also impute the income of a non-custodial parent by assessing a range of assets including real estate.
In addition to receiving child support based on the child support calculator, a custodial parent may be entitled to have the non-custodial parent pay a share of extenuating expenses for the children, such as medical insurance or daycare.
