Developed by a practicing family law attorney, the Childsupporttoday.com Texas calculators simple one-screen for data entry empowers users, letting them quickly play with different values for incomes, deductions, and kids, to see different possible support amounts. The results are one click away and displayed on an easy to read summary page.
It aims for accurate calculations and can be used by everyone from busy every-day parents to Texas lawyers and judges who need a quick supplement to their family law handbooks.
This calculator smartly accounts for multiple sources of income, such as W-2 employer-based income, and self-employment income, since the two receive different tax treatments.
The app also gives users not one but two answers in cases where the non-custodial parent (NCP) supports at least one other child at home or by court order. This feature helps the NCP know what would have been owed had it not been for the additional credit.
