Welcome to the Guideline Calculator

 The Guideline Calculator is temporarily unavailable due to system maintenance and testing.  We apologize for the inconvenience.

- ALERTS -

  • If you used this calculator between June 23, 2008 and July 11, 2008, please click on this important message.
  • Temporary spousal support functionality is not operable at this time.
    Temporary spousal support formulas are under development and will be available shortly. Until then, you will not be able to include temporary spousal support in your calculations. The “Include Temporary Spousal Support” radio buttons will appear “grayed-out” and will default to “No.”

The California Guideline Child Support Calculator is based on California Child Support Guidelines and can be used to estimate the amount of child support that may be ordered in your case.

The Court Commissioner or Family Law Judge has the final authority to determine the amount of a child support order. This calculator provides only an estimate and is not a guarantee of the amount of child support that will be ordered. Other factors may affect the amount of child support awarded.

If you have any questions about the child support guidelines, you should talk with a lawyer or contact a family law facilitator.
