Alimony Child Support in Kansas

In Kansas, child support and alimony (spousal maintenance) are governed by separate legal frameworks. Child support is calculated under the Kansas Child Support Guidelines (Kan. Sup. Ct. Admin. Order 307), which use a formula based on each parent’s income, parenting time, and other expenses. Spousal maintenance is determined under Kan. Stat. Ann. §§ 23-2902 and 23-2903, where a court considers factors set out in the statutes. The figure $50,000 may appear in a parent’s income calculation under the guidelines, but the specific result depends on the unique circumstances of each case. The worked example below illustrates how the formula applies. To estimate your own obligations, use the DocketMath calculator.
