Child support is determined by the amount of parenting time that each parent has with the children in a residence setting, and also by the payor parent’s ability to pay child support.

If the child is residing with one parent approximately two-thirds of the time, then the other parent is gonna be paying child support to that parent. How much will be, again, governed by the payor’s ability to pay.

If it is a 50/50 parenting split, then the higher earning parent will pay the lesser earning parent some order of child support, but it’s gonna be less than what a two-thirds, one-third split would afford.
