Current Child Support Guidelines

Medium

North Dakota Department of Human Services established child support guidelines to be used by courts in determining the amount a parent should be expected to contribute toward the support of a child. These guidelines apply in any action in North Dakota in which a child support obligation is being established or changed.

Amended guidelines (effective January 1, 2019) will replace the previous guidelines (effective through December 31, 2018). Both amended and previous guidelines are available below. A document that shows the changes made to the previous guidelines, resulting in the amended guidelines, is also available.
