CHILD SUPPORT PERTH

Balmoral Legal Family Lawyers are Child Support Experts

After the breakdown of a relationship, issues may arise in respect of the payment of child support. In most cases, a person can make an application for an assessment directly to the Child Support Agency.

The Child Support Agency determines the amount of child support payable by way of a formula. The formula used by the Child Support Agency takes into account factors, including:

  • the income of each of the parents of the child;
  • the percentage care that each parent has of the child; and
  • the estimated costs of the child.

 

An application may also be made to the Child Support Agency to seek to vary the child support assessment. Disputes as to an administrative assessment of child support will usually be determined by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.

In some circumstances, the Family Court of Western Australia may also hear child support matters.
