4 Care
Introduction
A parent (1.1.P.10) or non-parent’s percentage of care (1.1.P.70) is used in the child support formula (1.1.C.110) to calculate the rate of child support (1.1.C.60) payable.
This chapter explains how the Registrar will determine care (1.1.C.10) of a child, including when care is disputed. This chapter also provides information about interim care rules.
Parents can use the online Child Support care estimator to estimate the care percentage for their child support assessment (1.1.C.70).
