When calculating child support, the state of Maryland uses a complicated formula that weighs each parents' income and expenses. The most important factors in the formula are:

  • Actual monthly income: This includes monthly salary plus bonuses, social security, alimony and other income sources.
  • Adjusted income: This includes the actual income minus any pre-existing child support for another child.
  • Health insurance expenses: This includes monthly premiums and medical visits covered by insurance.
  • Extraordinary medical expenses: Any medical expenses not covered by insurance like physical therapy and orthodontics.
