Maryland requirements and review scope

Maryland sole or shared physical custody worksheet and financial statement. Use Maryland Family Law §§ 12-201 and 12-204 to determine the amounts counted for each party.
Wages, dividends, interest, business earnings, and other countable income are added separately for each party. Enter each dollar once; do not repeat business profit as an owner distribution.
General asset balances, loan balances, and household spending are not collected in this support-calculation workflow. Enter countable earnings from assets. A separate court financial affidavit may require additional disclosures.
Business and rental deductions must be expenses allowed for support, which can differ from tax-return deductions. Do not deduct personal living expenses as business expenses.
Uses Md. Code, Family Law § 12-204 schedule of basic child support obligations.
The schedule amount is divided between parents in proportion to adjusted actual incomes. Alimony/maintenance sequencing, additional children in the home, child care, health insurance, extraordinary medical expenses, shared physical custody and deviations are separate worksheet issues.
If combined adjusted actual income falls between schedule rows, Maryland uses the next higher amount; income above $30,000 is discretionary.

The available formula is a limited base calculation. Full parity with every line of the official worksheet, custody arrangement, tax computation, credit, and discretionary adjustment has not been verified. Review the stated limitations and the official sources.
