2017 Child Support Guidelines Tax Charts
Pursuant to § 154.061(b) of the Texas Family Code, the Office
of the Attorney General of Texas, as the Title IV-D agency, has promulgated
the following tax charts to assist courts in establishing the amount
of a child support order. These tax charts are applicable to employed
and self-employed persons in computing net monthly income.
To use these tables, first compute the obligor's annual gross income.
Then recompute to determine the obligor's average monthly gross income.
These tables provide a method for calculating "monthly net income"
for child support purposes, subtracting from monthly gross income
the social security taxes and the federal income tax withholding for
a single person claiming one personal exemption and the standard deduction.
Thereafter, in many cases the guidelines call for a number of additional
steps to complete the necessary calculations. For example, §§
154.061 - 154.070 provide for appropriate additions to "income" as
that term is defined for federal income tax purposes, and for certain
subtractions from monthly net income, in order to arrive at the net
resources of the obligor available for child support purposes. If
necessary, one may compute an obligee's net resources using similar steps.
