This is an estimate for information only — not legal advice, and not a court calculation. Judges can and do deviate from guideline amounts. For the number a court would use, see 2024 New Mexico Child Support Guidelines and Schedule.

This number is a snapshot. Child support depends on parenting time, and parenting time drifts — swapped weekends, changed holidays, summer schedules. Vireo keeps the custody calendar, messages and shared expenses in one timestamped record, so what actually happened is never a matter of memory.

How New Mexico calculates child support

Determine combined monthly adjusted gross income, select the basic obligation for the number of children, allocate by each parent's income share, and add allocated work-related child care, health insurance, and extraordinary medical expenses. Worksheet A applies to basic visitation; Worksheet B applies to shared responsibility.

How income is counted: Gross income broadly includes income from any source under NMSA 1978 Section 40-4-11.1; the guideline worksheet applies specified deductions and may use imputed income after considering federal ability-to-pay factors.
