Vista Child Support FAQs

Are bonuses and overtime included in Vista child support?

How does shared custody affect child support amounts in Vista?

When parents share time with their children, the financial contributions can feel different. We know you want a fair reflection of parenting time. In Vista, the amount of time each parent spends with the child does affect child support calculations. If parents have a more equal custody schedule, the child support amount may be lower or, in some cases, no support may be ordered. It is like balancing two scales with different weights. We accurately determine the percentage of time each parent has the child. We fight for a child support order that correctly reflects your custody arrangement.

Marriage status should not determine a child’s support. We know you want to secure your child’s rights regardless of marital history.
