Kansas Child Support Worksheet
Child support in Kansas is calculated under the Kansas Child Support Guidelines, which are adopted and periodically updated by the Kansas Supreme Court. Kansas follows an income shares model, meaning child support is based on the combined income of both parents and is intended to reflect the amount that would have been spent on the child if the parents lived together. Each parent’s share of support is then allocated according to their respective income and parenting time.

Kansas Child Support Calculator
The results produced by this Kansas child support calculator are estimates based on the information you provide. You may also review another Kansas child support calculator available through for comparison purposes.
The amount of child support ordered by a Kansas court may differ from the estimate generated by this calculator. While the Kansas Child Support Guidelines provide a structured framework, courts have discretion to adjust support amounts when circumstances justify a deviation. This calculator generally assumes that a child primarily resides with one parent and does not fully account for shared residency, joint physical custody, or split custody arrangements.
Kansas courts may consider additional factors when determining child support, including health insurance costs, work-related child care expenses, parenting time adjustments, and other financial considerations affecting the child’s best interests. In some cases, courts may deviate from the guideline amount if strict application would be unjust or inappropriate based on the specific facts of the case.
This calculator is intended for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. It does not account for extraordinary expenses or discretionary deviations. The court retains final authority to determine the amount of child support awarded, and the estimate provided is not a guarantee of the support amount that may ultimately be ordered.
