2020 Kansas Child Support Guidelines Survey Announced!
Every 4 years the Kansas child support guidelines must be reviewed and updated using the latest economic data, by Federal law. Also a requirement is that the guidelines must undergo a public review. Over the past 8 years, the guidelines have done this using Survey Monkey. Please take the time to review the proposed changes to the guidelines and offer your feedback in the survey. Since the Judicial Branch didn't make the links very easy to find, we've provided links below. Look for a blog article from us soon with our review of these changes.

Why not use the official Kansas calculator? The answer is simple, Kansas does not provide an official, state-sponsored, software or website to calculate child support. Kansas only provides the child support guidelines and a worksheet to fill out. For those wanting to automate or expedite Kansas child support calculations, 3rd party software is required most of the time.
