Indiana Support Master requires overnight totals
Idaho Child Support software requires an overnight total for each parent in order to figure out child support, based on the guidelines set by the state of Idaho.
Parenting time is the total time each parent spends with the children. To figure out a correct overnight total for Indiana clients, you must count up the amount of time the children reside with each parent. When clients set up a visitation schedule that includes every other holiday, after school visits, alternating weekends and vacation times, it becomes very difficult to calculate a precise total.
The overnight total is combined with each parent's income data for a parenting time credit. This credit applies only to sole physical custody cases. Joint or shared custody cases do not qualify for any kind of child support credit based on overnights. Indiana Support Master asks that you enter an overnight total in order to calculate child support.
Custody X Change calculates parenting time totals
Custody X Change software includes a parenting time calculator that shows exactly how much time each parent has with the children. It can provide this data as total number of hours, days or as a percentage of time annually.
When users set up a parenting time schedule, the software automatically counts up all the overnights for each parent. This accurate overnight total really helps you use Indiana Support Master software.
Use Custody X Change to get accurate overnight totals, because:
- Overnight totals are difficult to figure out by hand, because lawyers must add all the time up within a year for the nonresidential parent.
- Figuring overnight totals adjust every time an attorney changes the schedule.
- Calculating and re-calculating any change to the schedule is so complex, some lawyers are forced to estimate or guess.
- Entering overnight totals calculated from a guess or estimate into the Indiana child support formula means that child support amounts will likely be wrong.
Figuring out child support amounts requires exact numbers, from each parent's income to the amount of credits allowed. One of the most important numbers is the overnight total, or how long each parent is scheduled to be with the children. Correct numbers mean the child support amount is fair and accurate, and Custody X Change delivers accurate totals every time.
