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 South Carolina Child Support Guidelines, 2024 Edition.

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 South Carolina calculates child support

Combine monthly gross incomes, select the schedule amount for child count, allocate by income shares, and add allocated child care, health insurance, and extraordinary medical costs. Worksheet A is ordinary custody, Worksheet B offsets split custody, and Worksheet C applies the shared-custody multiplier and overnight shares.

How income is counted: Actual gross income if fully employed or potential income if unemployed/underemployed. Gross income includes income from any source subject to listed exclusions and self-employment rules.
