Indiana Child Support Calculator

The Indiana Supreme Court has approved changes to the Child Support Guidelines effective January 1, 2010.  A new child support calculator based on the amended guidelines is available below.  The calculators previously published to this site are no longer available because they will not calculate support under the new guidelines. Additional versions of the calculator are planned so look for them in the coming months.
