Important: This calculator provides estimates based on New York’s statutory guideline formulas under DRL §236B (maintenance) and the Child Support Standards Act (FCA §413). Actual support amounts depend on many additional factors including: tax filing status, childcare expenses, health insurance costs, voluntary imputation of income, deviation from CSSA guidelines, and the specific facts of your case. This tool is for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. The income cap figures used ($228,000 for maintenance; $183,000 for child support) reflect the most recently available statutory figures and are subject to periodic adjustment. Consult with an attorney before making any legal or financial decisions.
