How Is Child Support Determined in Arizona?

Arizona courts will examine the needs of the child as well as various elements to come up with a sufficient child support agreement. The court will consider the following:

  • Parent’s Income
  • Cost of Child’s Needs
  • Child’s Healthcare Costs
  • Daycare Costs
  • Health of Child

How Far Behind in Child Support Before a Warrant is Issued in AZ?

Once the parent who owes child support payments is 30 days behind in AZ, the custodial parent may file a contempt petition.

These charges can be increased to a felony if the parent fails to make child support payments beyond two years or fails to pay $10,000. Once that parent is convicted, they can face time in jail and pay fines, along with mandatory restitution to pay back the child support owed at the time of sentence.
