How Is Child Support Determined in California?

California utilizes a statewide formula in order to determine the amount of child support. This formula is highly complex and takes many variables into account in order to come up with this amount.

The calculation is based on the following, and more:

• Number of children
• Income per parent
• Custody situation
• Tax filing status
• Tax-deductible expenses

How Long Does Child Support Last?

In California, child support ends when the child turns 18 years old and graduates high school, as long as the child still lives with his or her custodial parent. Support can continue until the child is 19 years old if he or she is still enrolled full-time in high school.
