sum of $__________ per month. The allocation of support per child is as stated in the
attached Child Support Calculation.
Child Support shall be:
due one-half on the first and one-half on the fifteenth day of each month
due on the first of the month
due on the _______ day of each month
commencing ___________ and continuing until further order of the Court or until the child
marries, dies, is emancipated, reaches age 19, or reaches age 18 and is not a full-time high
school student, whichever occurs first.
GUIDELINE: A printout of a computer calculation and findings is attached and incorporated in this
order. The amount of support per the guideline formula is $___________.
The amount of child support is set forth as calculated under the guideline.
OR
WE AGREE TO NON-GUIDELINE CHILD SUPPORT. The child support agreed to by the
parties is below or above guideline. Pursuant to Family Code Section 4065(a), the parties
declare that they have been fully informed of their rights concerning child support. Neither
party is acting out of duress or coercion. Neither party is receiving public assistance and no
application for public assistance is pending. The needs of the children will be adequately met
by this agreed-upon amount of child support; the agreement is in the best interests of the
children involved. Application of the guideline amount would be unjust or inappropriate in this
case. If the order is below the guideline, no change of circumstances will be required to
