NEW MEXICO Part 21

What else is included in child support besides insurance and day care costs?

New Mexico has an "additional expenses" variable on its child support worksheets. The most commonly accepted additional expenses are costs associated with:

    long-distance visitation expenses (plane tickets, gasoline for driving the children to the other home, and long-distance phone calls)
    a child’s regular psychological counseling (not covered by insurance)
    orthodontia
    private school tuition when both parents agree the child should go to a private school, and

    auto insurance for teenage drivers.
