Does a change in parenting time schedule affect child support?
Answer:
Yes. Parenting overnights are one factor in the support calculation, so a schedule change may affect the amount. The full calculation and existing order should be reviewed before determining the appropriate response.
A change in parenting time may affect child support modification because overnights are one input in the support calculation. They are not the only relevant factor.
If the schedule has shifted and you are unsure what that means for support, Rugged Law can review the overnights and other circumstances, then explain whether a modification may be appropriate.
