There are different forms of child support arrangements which the parties may enter into, each depending on your current financial position. It is also possible for the parties to willingly negotiate the terms of how child support is paid. However, generally, there are three main child support options to consider:
Child Support Agreement
🤝 When both parties agree on the amount and terms of child support. Written agreement, registered with the Child Support Agency for smooth collection and distribution.
Child Support Assessment Managed by the Child Support Agency based on income and care arrangements. The most common and straightforward method!
Court Ordered Child Support ⚖️
👨⚖️ For special cases, like supporting a child over 18 with a disability. Filed in Family Law Court as “child maintenance.”
