Child Support Guidelines

The Child Support Recalculation Service uses the applicable Child Support Guidelines to make its recalculations. The Guideline tables list the monthly child support amounts, based on the number of children a family has, and the annual gross income. To see what your child support amount is likely to be according to the Guidelines, use our Child Support Calculator.

Child Support Guidelines ensure that child support orders across the country are fair and objective. They guide the courts in setting consistent support levels for families who are in similar circumstances. To learn more, visit the Justice Canada page on the Child Support Guidelines.
