In a child support formula there is an entry for how much the father pays for health insurance?

The child support formula has an entry for medial health payment. In our case the father is providing the health insurance to the kids. The number he puts in, is it everything he pays? Or just the difference between paying for himself only vs paying for a family plan?





|||In most states and divorce decrees, the father is required to pay for the health insurance premium and the mother will be liable for any deductible or co-payments.





If the mother has better health benefits, the formula could be turned around, but it has to be agreed upon prior to the divorce, otherwise, the parties have to go back to Court.|||Yep|||He puts in only the amount that he pays for the child. So if he pays $100 a month and there are 4 people on the insurance the prorated amount for that one child is $25 for two kids $50. I have been through it too many times and I took paralegal classes.|||support is 17 percent per child from gross. The after the FICA tax.





other cost and expense is normally 50 percent but it is depending on the deal and the agreement in court.





If he carrying his child health insurance.





for example. $25.00 for single


$35.00 for single plus one or family plan.





The 50 percent that he have to pay is $10/2 = $5.00





Look in his court order to see what percentage he have to pay.
