Tennessee requirements and review scope

Tennessee income shares worksheet and parenting-time, other-child, and expense adjustments. Use Tennessee Rules 1240-02-04 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 the official Tennessee DHS Income Shares Worksheet schedule tab for the Basic Child Support Obligation.
The TN.gov guidelines page states Tennessee uses an Income Shares model based on combined adjusted gross income and number of children.
For combined adjusted gross income above $28,250, this module applies the high-income support-increase percentages shown on the official worksheet schedule tab.
Parenting-time adjustments, qualified-other-child credits, health insurance, recurring uninsured medical expenses, work-related child care, presumptive-order caps, minimum-order exceptions and deviations require the full Tennessee 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.
