Comprehensive Guide to Child Support in Texas

The Texas Family Code sets out specific guidelines to determine child support amounts. The Texas Attorney General's Office provides an online calculator to help you estimate the amount of child support that is due. The amount is calculated based on the combined net income of both parents and the number of children in the family. In Texas, either parent can request a modification of child support.

There are many factors that can affect the final amount of child support. Some examples include:

• A change in either parent's income
• A decrease in either parent's time spent with the children
• A child's medical or other special needs

In addition, a parent may request a "court-ordered modification" if certain circumstances change. For example, if the paying parent loses his or her job, he or she may argue that he or she can no longer afford the child support payment. The other parent can then request a modification of the child support order.
