 FAQs

How is child support calculated in Massachusetts?
It’s based on both parents’ incomes, custody arrangement, and other expenses. We’ll explain how the formula applies to your case.

Can child support be changed later?
Yes. If income, employment, or custody changes, a modification may be possible.

What if the other parent isn’t paying?
We can file for enforcement to help you collect what’s owed.
