MINNESOTA CHILD SUPPORT GUIDELINES CALCULATOR

The Minnesota Child Support Division bases the Child Support Guidelines
Calculator on the Minnesota child support guidelines statute. The calculator is
intended to be used to estimate the amount of child support the court may order
on a case. This calculator is for informational and educational use only and is
not a substitute for the child support guidelines. The Minnesota child support
guidelines statute changed on Jan. 1, 2023. Below you will find a link to the
calculator effective before Jan. 1, 2023 and a link to the new calculator
effective after Jan. 1, 2023.

The court has the final authority to determine the amount of a child support
order. The calculator provides an estimate only and is not a guarantee of the
amount of child support the court will order. The calculator is only able to
calculate a basic support amount for six or fewer joint children. If there are
more than six joint children, the court may determine a support order without
specifically following the guidelines.

If you have any questions about the child support guidelines you should contact
your child support agency or an attorney.

TO PROCEED WITH THE CALCULATOR YOU WILL NEED TO KNOW THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

 * Each parent's gross monthly income (from all sources)
 * How many legal nonjoint children without a support order each parent has
 * Any other child support orders for either parent
 * Any spousal maintenance orders for either parent
 * The amount of benefits from Social Security or the U.S. Department of
   Veterans Affairs paid to a joint child due to a parent's disability or
   retirement
 * The monthly cost for both medical and dental coverage
 * The amount of child care costs
 * The percentage, or amount of parenting time awarded in a court order
 * Whether a parent is incarcerated

The Minnesota child support guidelines changed on Jan. 1, 2023. Click on the
link to the calculator effective after Jan. 1, 2023 unless you are calculating
past support for a period of time before Jan. 1, 2023.
