Is child support based on income?

Question

In Oregon.

Answer 1

Yes, it is. It is based on the income of BOTH parties!

Answer 2

Child support is based on income in all states. Only the percentage varies.

Answer 3

Courts usually base child support on the ability of the person to pay, which doesn't necessarily reflect that person's income.

Attorneys who handle divorce, child custody, alimony, and child support are knowledgeable of what a client can reasonably expect in child support after reviewing their client's circumstances and reviewing the known finances of the person who is being asked to pay.

Answer 4

child support is based on the income of the parent that has to pay. their is a certain percentage that has to be paid for each child and it is based on the gross income of the non custodial parent. i believe i is 17% for each child but not sure if u look it up on the computer it will tell u the percentage. sorry.

Answer 5

yes it is, of both parents.
