A noncustodial parent is not in compliance with a child support obligation and that noncompliance leads to incarceration (short-term, primarily in local jails) as a result of either a civil contempt or criminal non-support action taken by the state.

Before worrying too much about how much child support will cost, or how much you might get, you should know that Wyoming child support laws require both parents to support the child. What this means in actual dollars depends on your custody arrangement and both parents' income.

In the state of Wyoming, child support is enforced by the state child support agency. The state agency handles the location of non-custodial parents, enforcement of support orders, and the handling of unpaid child support arrears.

To begin an action to modify child support, you must file a Petition for Modification of Child Support and Judgment for Arrears with the clerk of the district court where the original child support order was granted.

Willful failure to pay child support is a crime under W.S. 20-3-101, which states that a person obligated to provide support for a child under the age of 18 may be guilty of a misdemeanor if they have failed to pay a court-ordered support obligation within 60 days of the date payment was due.

Ing to the guidelines, for two kids, you must pay between 20% to 36.8% of your net income, plus an additional percentage of any income above a certain baseline amount. The baseline for our example net income of $2,500) is $2,083. The percentage of child support due on $2,083 is 35%.
