child support with 50/50 custody
I am going to file for divorce and 50/50 custody for the children. I need to know how much child support I should be paying, Since separation I have pais 1,000. per month and I had it notarized so she would know I was committed to my children. Can this be changed. I also pay her an extra 300.00 per month to help with her house payment. I make 50,000 a year and she makes 20,000. I have been struggling to stay afloat and the children are with me almost half the time anyways. can u help

Re: child support with 50/50 custody
In order to calculate child support we need to know how many children you have. Also, each county calculates time share a little differently. If you live in San Diego County e-mail me with the actual schedule and the number of children and I can calculate guideline support. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
