How the number of children changes the amount in Utah

With Parent A earning $60,000 and Parent B $40,000, the guideline amount for 2 children is $872 a month, about 1.55 times the $563 for one child. Support rises with each child, but by less than the first child's amount, because the guidelines reflect how households share costs among children.

Utah uses the income shares model. The parents' adjusted gross incomes are added together and the statutory table gives the base combined child support obligation for that income and number of children. Each parent is responsible for their share of income.

With about equal parenting time and the same incomes ($60,000 and $40,000), the guideline amount is about $159 a month (Parent A pays Parent B), against $872 when Parent A has 52 overnights a year. When each parent has at least 111 overnights a year (joint physical custody), the parent with fewer overnights takes their share of the table amount and subtracts a credit for the overnights above the threshold. If the result is below zero, the other parent pays the difference. With an equal schedule, the parent with the lower income is treated as having the extra overnight.
