FAQ

Utah law requires the child support obligation to follow the child. This means we will enforce the obligation against the parent who does not have physical custody of the child. If neither parent has physical custody of a child who is living with a relative, we will enforce the obligations of both parents.

Child support is calculated using the gross monthly income of both parents and the number of overnights the child spends in each household.

The court estimates that the cost of raising one child is $1,000 a month. The non-custodial parent's income is 66.6% of the parent's total combined income. Therefore, the non-custodial parent pays $666 per month in child support, or 66.6% of the total child support obligation.

The biggest factor in calculating child support is how much the parents earn. Some states consider both parents' income, but others consider only the income of the noncustodial parent. In most states, the percentage of time that each parent spends with the children is another important factor.

Both parents are entitled to regular time with their child and neither parent can prevent visits.

The court will consider the child's wishes to the extent that the child is sufficiently mature to express reasoned and independent preferences as to the parenting time schedule. Usually the court will not consider child's preference unless the child is at least 14 years old.

Utah's statute of limitations for child support arrears is the age of majority of the last child on the order, plus 4 years. (Unless a sum-certain judgment has been taken.)

In cases where parents can't agree, a judge will decide visitation and custody based on the child's best interests.Both parents are bound by the terms of a custody order. If your child refuses to go to visits with the other parent, you could still be on the hook for failing to comply with a custody order.

Utah law requires both parents to financially support their child (or children).The Utah Child Support Guidelines are simply a fee schedule, or formula. Parents can agree to pay more than the amount given by the guidelines, but not less, and a court must approve the amount.
