Oklahoma Child Support Calculator And Online Resources
The Oklahoma child support calculator uses guidelines that are based on the Income Shares Model. The monthly support amount is determined by the guidelines applied proportionally according to each parent's income.
These two (2) support amounts then establish which parent will pay the other parent for support of the child.
All income is generally verified by evidence presented on past W-2's.
An Oklahoma child support calculator computes payment amounts as a percentage of the combined gross income of both parents.
The Child Support Guideline Schedule is used for such computations. The child support obligations of each parent is
computed.
The court also takes into consideration and examines the following deviation factors:
The medical and dental insurance premium for each child.
The parent with the larger child support obligation shall pay the difference between the two amounts to the parent with the smaller child support obligation.
Child care expenses are added to the child support obligation.
The court may order medical, transportation, or other costs may be added to the base monthly child support obligation.
