Child Support Calculator
Virginia Child Support Calculator
Virginia combines both parents' gross incomes, reads the basic obligation from the statutory schedule, and splits it by each parent's share of income. When each parent has the children more than 90 days a year, the shared custody worksheet applies a 1.4 multiplier and offsets the two obligations.
