Explain why child support is set in excess of the advisory amount.

If the fourth box is checked explain how support should be adjusted.

PARAGRAPH 3.6--STANDARD CALCULATION. Enter the amount listed for the paying parent on line 15 of the Child Support Worksheet.

(A "deviation" means the child support is higher or lower than the amount listed on line 15 of the Child Support Worksheet.) If the amount of child support ordered at paragraph 3.5 is the same as the amount listed at paragraph 3.6, check the first box. If the amount of child support ordered at paragraph 3.4 is different (i.e., deviates) from the amount listed at paragraph 3.6, check the second box and then check the boxes below which apply. You must also explain the facts that support these reasons checked.

PARAGRAPH 3.8--REASONS WHY REQUEST FOR DEVIATION WAS DENIED. Check the first box if the court granted a deviation.

Check the third box if an amount of support was requested which was different from the amount listed for the paying parent on line 15 of the Child Support Worksheet, but the court did not grant the deviation and the amount of support in paragraph 3.5 is the same as the amount of support listed for the paying parent on line 15 of the Child Support Worksheet.

Write the date the second increment will be due in the space provided.

PARAGRAPH 3.11--HOW SUPPORT PAYMENTS SHALL BE MADE. Check the first box if you want the Division of Child Support to collect and distribute the child support payments and provide enforcement services.
