Child support comes out of your net pay. they use your gross income too find out how much you have to pay to the child but it comes out of your net. |

You do know it's not deductable on your tax return, right? |

dont know where you live but in most states. the support guidelines are based on total gross income. both of your incomes are included in the formula. |

Maybe.
If there is a court withholding order stating a specific amount, it is that amount and your gross or net is irrelevant.
If there is a garnishment, it can take 50% of your disposable income (compared to 25% for an ordinary garnishment.) That is the amount after withholding taxes and mandatory deductions such as union dues and neccessary voluntary deductions such as health insurance. |

Gross pay - but, they also take into consideration if you have insurance on the child and how much you pay for that child - that will also be deducted somehow. and, maybe in your state it is how often you see the child.-that saves money |

It's based upon your gross pay with an allowance for basic living expenses, including your actual costs if you reponded to the court's order for that information on time. The amount of any garnishment comes out of your NET pay, however, as there is no tax benefit for child support. |

Definitely net pay. Income that goes to child support is tax-free to the recipient, but taxable to the paying parent.

If it is a percentage it would be out of your gross, but it also could be one specific amount that comes out each week. |

They go by your gross to determine the amount you will pay...then they deduct it from your gross pay...then the government counts that payment as your total income for the year making you look richer than you actually are...then you cannot claim it on your taxes as a deduction...they have it a figured out!!! |

Are you talking about if your wages are being garnished? If so, at least in WA they can't take more than 50% of your net pay. (disposable earnings) (I have a couple of employees that are garnished that I do payroll on) |

Whichever is before taxes. I believe! I receive it so I am not totally sure but that is what I believe they told me when I went to the Attorney General and got mine set. |
