To calculate child support, Alaska family courts will only take Robert's annual income and multiply it by an assigned percentage that represents the number of children. The percentages used to calculate an Alaska child support award are: 20% for one child. 27% for two children.

That court rule says that the noncustodial parent of one child should pay 20% of his or her adjusted income to support one child. Adjusted income means earning after deductions for taxes, union dues, retirement deductions and other mandatory deductions.

To calculate child support in a primary custody arrangement, multiply the noncustodial parent's annual net income by 20% for one child, 27% for two children, and 33% for three children. If there are more than three children, add an additional 3% for each additional child.

Alaska Law states that a parent must pay child support until a child is 19 years old if they are going to high school, and are still living with (and being supported by) the other parent. In this case, the non-custodial parent will be obligated to pay until the child turns 19 or graduates from high school.

Qualifying for child support modification If the non-custodial parent's income has fluctuated by at least 15 percent from the current child support order, a court may increase or decrease the payment amount. A change in the child's visitation schedule or parenting plan may warrant a child support update as well.
