NORTH DAKOTA Part 26

What Do I Need to Know About a North Dakota Child Support Order?

In North Dakota, courts use guidelines to determine how much child support must be paid. Under the guidelines, the paying parent has to pay a certain percentage of gross monthly income to the receiving parent, depending on the amount of available income, the time each parent spends with the children, and the number of children the couple has together. The information can be typed into a child support calculator, which assesses each parent's responsibility.
