Frequently Asked Questions

What does a parenting-time percentage show?
It summarizes the time allocated under the selected schedule and counting method. Check that the entries reflect the actual period and arrangements being assessed.
How does the 40% threshold relate to support?
Section 9 of the Federal Child Support Guidelines addresses cases where each spouse exercises at least 40% of parenting time with a child over a year. It also requires consideration of table amounts, increased costs and the circumstances of the family.
Are days, overnights and hours interchangeable?
No. Different counting methods can produce different percentages. Review the assumptions and the appropriate method for the matter; a rounded display should not decide a threshold question.
