How much child support with joing custody, FL.
With joint physical and legal custody agreed upon. What are the guidelines for the amount of child support payments? The calculator assumes one parent has custody and the other has none, which gives an incredibly high amount considering what I pay to support my child for myself.

The calculator assumes one parent has physical custody OR one parent has MORE physical custody than the other. That will determine how support is calculated.

"The trier of fact may order payment of child support which varies, plus or minus 5 percent, from the guideline amount, after considering all relevant factors, including the needs of the child or children, age, station in life, standard of living, and the financial status and ability of each parent. The trier of fact may order payment of child support in an amount which varies more than 5 percent from such guideline amount only upon a written finding explaining why ordering payment of such guideline amount would be unjust or inappropriate. Notwithstanding the variance limitations of this section, the trier of fact shall order payment of child support which varies from the guideline amount as provided in paragraph (11)(b) whenever any of the children are required by court order or mediation agreement to spend a substantial amount of time with either parent. This requirement applies to any living arrangement, whether temporary or permanent. "
