Question

Have 50 50 custody, should father be paying child support? Live in PA

Answer

In Pennsylvania, both parents are responsible for child support. If the income of both parents is about equal, then neither parent would be paying child support to the other parent, if the child spends an equal amount of time with each parent.

If the income of one of the parents is significantly greater than the income of the other parent, then the parent with the greater income would be liable for payment of the difference to the other parent for some of the child support.
