Pennsylvania requirements and review scope

Pennsylvania support computation with net income, reserve, custody, and expense adjustments. Use Pennsylvania Rule 1910.16-2 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.
This worksheet needs state-permitted tax and other deductions. Enter the guideline tax deduction, not take-home pay or every deduction shown on a pay stub. Automatic tax preparation is not provided.
Uses Pennsylvania Code Rule 1910.16-3 Basic Child Support Schedule, effective January 1, 2026.
Rule 1910.16-4 allocates the basic child support obligation by each party’s monthly net-income percentage.
For combined monthly net income above $30,000, Rule 1910.16-3.1 applies the presumptive-minimum-plus-percentage high-income formula before income-share apportionment.
For more than six children, Rule 1910.16-4(b) adds the difference between the six-child and five-child obligations for each child over six.
Spousal support/APL sequencing, Social Security derivative benefit credits, substantial/shared custody, split custody, additional expenses, low-income treatment and deviations require the full Pennsylvania worksheet.

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.
