New Jersey's 8-step process ensures fair allocation of child support based on proportional income contributions
Collect all income sources from both parents: wages, bonuses, commissions, self-employment, rental income, investment returns, and other earnings.
Apply Social Security taxes (6.2% on first $176,100) and Medicare (1.45%) to gross income to determine payroll tax obligations.
Subtract federal income tax withholding and New Jersey state income tax using current tax tables.
Combine adjusted gross income with all deductions (child support for other children, health insurance, union dues, mandatory retirement).
Add both parents' net income to establish the combined income subject to the child support formula.
Use New Jersey's guidelines table (Appendix IX) to find the base support amount based on combined income and number of children.
Each parent pays their percentage of the guideline amount based on their net income as a proportion of combined net income.
Adjust for parenting time, health insurance, childcare, and other factors per New Jersey Court Rule 5:6A.
