If someone earns more money in a joint custody situation, does he/she have to pay child support?

Usually, but it depends on the income difference and whether the joint custody means completely equal time, or a slightly uneven split.

Where do you live? There are child support calculators for most places online. Google "child support calculator + you location" and it should come up. Then you can plug in the relevant info and it'll give you all the details.

DEpends on how much the difference is between the 2 incomes and how much each parent has the child


Somethingtotry
Too many ifs to provide you a good answer. It really depends upon how much more money the other person earns and who has the kids the majority of the time. Even in joint custody one parent will physically have the kids more than the other. Joint custody entitles you to be in on the decisions concerning the kids, not always that you have exactly 50% contact.

Usually, yes.

Yes the child support is for the child.Yes the amount of support is determined on how much the person makes that is going to pay but it has nothing to with who make more money or if the receiving parent make alot of money you still have to pay
