The court will consider several factors when determining the amount of child support, including the needs of the child, the income and financial situation of both parents, and the standard of living the child would have enjoyed if the parents had remained together.
The court may also take into account any special circumstances, such as the child’s health or education needs, as well as any other relevant factors.
Once the court has determined the amount of child support, the non-custodial parent will be required to make payments to the custodial parent on a regular basis. The payments will typically be made until the child reaches the age of majority or completes their education, whichever comes first.
It’s important to note that child support arrangements can be modified if there is a significant change in circumstances, such as a change in the financial situation of one of the parents or a change in the needs of the child.
