Missouri Child Support Worksheet (Form 14)
Child support obligations in Missouri are calculated under Missouri Supreme Court Rule 88.01, using the official Form 14 worksheet. This form establishes a presumptive child support amount based on statutory guidelines.
For convenience, Stange Law Firm, PC provides access to a Missouri Form 14 child support calculator to help parents better understand how child support may be determined:
Missouri Child Support Calculator – Form 14
This calculator is designed to give users a general estimate of child support based on the information entered. An additional Form 14 calculator is also available online for comparison purposes.
Important Information About Missouri Child Support Calculations
The estimate generated by a Form 14 calculator is not binding on the court. Judges retain full discretion to determine the final child support amount and may deviate from the calculated figure when appropriate.
In addition, this calculator is based on assumptions that may not apply in every case, including:
-
One parent having primary physical custody
-
No shared or split custody arrangements
-
No extraordinary medical, educational, or child-related expenses
Child support awards may be adjusted based on additional factors such as parenting time, healthcare costs, childcare expenses, income adjustments, or other considerations permitted under Missouri law.
This calculator is provided for informational purposes only. It is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as a guarantee of the amount that will ultimately be ordered by the court.
For official guidance and court-approved resources, additional information regarding Missouri child support and Form 14 is available through Your Missouri Courts.
