California Child Support Add-Ons

An overview of "add-ons" to California child support

A child support add-on may increase the amount of child support

Courts often order one or more child support add-on costs to a child support order. The most common add-on costs are uninsured healthcare expenses and childcare expenses related to employment. The court may, but does not have to, include additional child support add-on costs related to the educational or other special needs of the children and travel expenses for visitation.
