Yes, general guidelines for child support are no less than 40% of the noncustodial parent's income if there are 5 or more children. This percentage may differ depending upon the laws of the state where the child/children reside. The rules also differ if multiple children reside in different households and/or parents share equal physical custody. In some cases the amount of support can be based on earning potential rather than the actual present income.

Yes. But child support is still dependent on your income, no matter how many children you have.

The custodial parent usually has to pursue child support before being granted access to welfare, so it is important, even if the non-custodial parent doesn't have the money - to make sure that all paperwork is up to date, so that the children are taken care of.

If the non-custodial parent find themselves unemployed, or injured, or unable to make ends meet - they may request a hearing at any time to review the amount being paid.

Do you have to pay Child Support if you have 4 kids and one of the kids is with the non custodial parent?

You have to pay child support for any of your children that does not live with you. So if you have 3 kids that live with you and one kid that lives with your ex you would be responsible for paying child support for the one child that lives with your ex. However, you only have to pay, legally, when a court has ordered you to. If your ex is paying child support for the three kids that live with you a court could order a reduction in child support that he/she has to pay to you instead of you having to pay child support to him/her.


Does father have to pay a child support if his child is out of country?

Yes, for the 2 in the other state, but the mother has to pay support for the 1 child you have, so most likely a judge would order you to pay the support for one child and call it even. If there are other issues like health insurance and other costs, then a judge will work out a payment that takes into account the child you are caring for. A father should want to support his children because he cares for them and not because the law forces him to.But, the difference in income may affect this, though the gender of the parent may be taken into account. If the father had two children, but learned more. he would pay more for child support than the mother would. Sole custody fathers can still be ordered to pay child support. This is very common in California, but can be done in every state using a rebuttable presumption. Though they should, mothers are not held to the same level of obligation, nor pay it in 95% of the cases when they are.
