Estimate the Child Support with our Online Calculator
Child support is the financial obligation owed to support an individual’s non-custodial offspring. The money is paid to the custodial parent to cover child-rearing costs including food, shelter, medical care and education.
In North Carolina, for families making less than $25,000 per month the financial obligation for child support is set by state guidelines. The NC Child Support Calculator provided here uses those guidelines in conjunction with your personal information to determine the child support amount you can expect to pay.
Based on the answers you provide, the calculator will figure your obligation in cases of primary custody, joint custody or split custody. Keep in mind that the court has the authority to make financial adjustments as deemed appropriate. Obviously, this cannot be accounted for by the calculator so consider the figure an informed estimate.
