Arkansas Child Support Guidelines

[NotSoNew]

What is the name of your state? AK

I am asking this for a friend, I tried looking at the AK guidelines and they really didnt say much and the calculators I googled are even worse. I see that AK only takes NCPs income into consideration, I am trying to find out if they take other children into consideration or give a credit for visitation time. I can't find anything?

Does the calculator have anything about subsequent child support orders or subsequent children listed? If not then it's not likely considered.

thats what i was afraid of. the calculator is 2 lines. Number of children and gross monthly income of NCP. I have never seen such a short calculator before!

I receive child support from AR. Sebastian County in fact. There is credit for visitation.. If the children are with the NCP for 2 weeks or more than only 1/2 of the child support is owed. Your best bet is to call the local CSE in AR or look it up on their web site.

2 CONSECUTIVE weeks that is.

(I know I'm only pointing out the obvious. But you'd be surprised at how many people wouldn't see it that way.)

they do one week on and one week off for the whole summer so I guess that wouldnt apply then.

Thank you Ceara19, you are correct.
One week on and one week off, might and it might not apply. Give the CSE a call and they will anwer your questions. They're very nice and helpful.
