Calculate Child Maintenance

Child Maintenance: Calculations

If you need to calculate how much your child maintenance should be then you can use the child maintenance calculator on the Government website.

The calculator:
  1. gives you an amount to discuss with the other parent if you’re arranging child maintenance yourselves - you do not have to use it
  2. shows you what the government is likely to work out for you
You will not have anything to pay through the Child Maintenance Service if you are:
  1. sharing care equally with the other parent
  2. a full-time student with no income
  3. in prison
