The 2005 State of Colorado Child Support Commission Report outlines the findings and recommendations of the Commission regarding child support guidelines in Colorado. It emphasizes the importance of fair and equitable guidelines to support single-parent households and reduce child poverty. The report is divided into two parts: the first part discusses the Commission's work, including mandated issues such as economic data on child-rearing costs, judicial deviations from guidelines, and enforcement of support judgments; while the second part proposes a reorganization of the child support guideline statute for better accessibility. Key recommendations include maintaining current guidelines without significant changes, improving clarity in legal language, and ensuring that child support obligations are fairly calculated based on parents' incomes.

Do you still have to pay child support if the child goes to college in Colorado?

Child support is a legal obligation that exists to ensure the financial well-being of children, regardless of the number of children you have. While some may believe that having more children will reduce child support obligations, this is not the case.

How long does a parent have to pay child support in Colorado?

Retroactive support may be awarded back to the filing of an initial child support petition or modification as well. Retroactive child support is not automatic and courts have discretion with regards to issuance. Colorado caselaw dictates that retroactivity should not be awarded if it would deprive the child of support.

What does child support not cover in Colorado?

Colo. The more nights the child spends with the non-custodial parent, the less child support the non-custodial parent has to pay. If the child stays with both parents equally, the parent with the higher income pays child support to the lower earner.

When can you stop paying child support in Colorado?

If you fail to make the required child support payments in Colorado, CSS will initiate an investigation and take steps to enforce payment. Failure of payment can severely impact the financial stability of the child and the custodial parent, making these payments a top priority for CSS.
