Preguntas frecuentes

¿Qué es la Reserva de Autosuficiencia en Vermont?

La Reserva de Autosuficiencia garantiza que el padre obligado a pagar tenga ingresos suficientes para cubrir sus propias necesidades básicas. A partir del 2 de febrero de 2026, la Reserva de Autosuficiencia es de $1,596 mensuales. Si pagar la manutención infantil reduciría el ingreso del obligado por debajo de este monto, la obligación de manutención puede reducirse a la diferencia entre el ingreso del padre y la reserva de autosuficiencia.

¿Vermont considera los ingresos de ambos padres para la manutención infantil?

Sí. Vermont utiliza el Modelo de Ingresos Compartidos según el 15 V.S.A. Sección 654, que usa los ingresos disponibles combinados de ambos padres para determinar la obligación total de manutención infantil. Cada padre paga luego su parte proporcional según su porcentaje del ingreso disponible combinado.

¿Puedo recibir manutención infantil si nunca estuvimos casados en Vermont?

Sí. El estado civil no afecta su derecho a la manutención infantil en Vermont. Sin embargo, si no estuvo casado, primero debe establecerse legalmente la paternidad mediante un formulario de Reconocimiento Voluntario de Paternidad (VAP), una prueba genética o una orden judicial.

¿Cómo afecta la custodia compartida a la manutención infantil en Vermont?

Cuando cada padre tiene custodia física del 30% o más del año, la obligación total de manutención infantil aumenta un 50% para cubrir el costo de mantener dos hogares. La parte de cada padre se basa en el ingreso y el tiempo de custodia, y los montos se compensan entre sí de modo que solo el padre que debe más paga la diferencia. Para custodia de entre el 25% y menos del 30%, el estado usa una tabla intermedia de costos compartidos.

¿Qué es el Ingreso Presunto en los cálculos de manutención infantil de Vermont?

Si no se puede determinar el ingreso real de un padre, el tribunal puede usar el Ingreso Presunto para los cálculos. A partir del 1 de julio de 2026, la cifra del Ingreso Presunto es de $99,513.00 anuales. Este monto se basa en el salario anual promedio y el estado lo actualiza periódicamente.

§ 654Support guidelineVigente
The Secretary of Human Services shall prescribe by rule a guideline for child support that reflects the percent of combined available income that parents living in the same household in Vermont ordinarily spend on their children. The rule shall be based on the concept that children should receive the same proportion of parental income after separation or divorce of their parents as they would receive if their parents were living together in one household. The rule shall be based on the financial needs of Vermont children, established by such reliable data as most accurately reflect their needs. The amounts of child support determined under the guideline shall be expressed in dollars and shall be presumed to be the total support obligation of parents. The Secretary may amend the guideline from time to time as may be necessary, but not less than once every four years. The Secretary shall also prepare and make available forms suitable for calculating amounts payable under this section. (Added 1985, No. 180 (Adj. Sess.), § 2, eff. April 1, 1987; amended 1989, No. 220 (Adj. Sess.), § 17.)

§ 656Computation of parental support obligationVigente
(a) Except in situations where there is shared or split physical custody, the total child support obligation shall be divided between the parents in proportion to their respective available incomes and the noncustodial parent shall be ordered to pay, in money, his or her share of the total support obligation to the custodial parent. The custodial parent shall be presumed to spend his or her share directly on the child. (b) If the noncustodial parent’s available income is less than the lowest income figure in the support guideline adopted under section 654 of this title or is less than the self-support reserve, the court shall use its discretion to determine support using the factors in section 659 of this title and shall require payment of a nominal support amount. (c) If the noncustodial parent’s available income is greater than the self-support reserve but payment of a child support order based on application of the guideline would reduce the noncustodial parent’s income below the self-support reserve, the noncustodial parent’s share of the total support obligation shall be presumed to be the difference between the self-support reserve and his or her available income.

§ 657Shared or split physical custodyVigente
(a) When each parent exercises physical custody for 30 percent or more of a calendar year, the total child support obligation shall be increased by 50 percent to reflect the additional costs of maintaining two households. Each parental support obligation shall be determined by dividing the total support obligation between the parents in proportion to their respective available incomes and in proportion to the amount of time each parent exercises physical custody. The parental support obligations shall then be offset, with the parent owing the larger amount being required to pay the difference between the two amounts to the other parent. (b) When one parent exercises physical custody for 25 percent or more but less than 30 percent of a calendar year, each parent’s respective share of the total support obligation shall be determined in accordance with a shared costs table adopted by the Agency of Human Services by rule. The shared costs table shall be developed in such a way as to minimize economic disputes over parent-child contact or visitation and shall reflect the additional costs of maintaining two households by increasing the total support obligation by 50 percent.

(d) The court or magistrate may order an obligor or a parent who will become the obligor pending an anticipated child support order to participate in employment, educational, or training-related activities if the court finds that participation in such activities would assist in providing support for a child, or in addressing the causes of the default.

§ 659Child support orderVigente
(a) The total support obligation shall be presumed to be the amount of child support needed. Upon request of a party, the court shall consider the following factors in respect to both parents. If, after consideration of these factors, the court finds that application of the guidelines is unfair to the child or to any of the parties, the court may adjust the amount of child support: (1) The financial resources of the child. (2) The financial resources of the custodial parent. (3) The standard of living the child would have enjoyed had the marital relationship not been discontinued. (4) The physical and emotional condition of the child. (5) The educational needs of the child. (6) The financial resources and needs of the noncustodial parent. (7) Inflation. (8) The costs of meeting the educational needs of either parent, if the costs are incurred for the purpose of increasing the earning capacity of the parent. (9) Extraordinary travel and other travel-related expenses incurred in exercising the right to parent-child contact. (10) Any other factors the court finds relevant.

§ 660ModificationVigente
(a)(1) On motion of either parent, the Office of Child Support, any other person to whom support has previously been granted, or any person previously charged with support, and upon a showing of a real, substantial and unanticipated change of circumstances, the court may annul, vary, or modify a child support order, whether or not the order is based upon a stipulation or agreement. If the child support order has not been modified by the court for at least three years, the court may waive the requirement of a showing of a real, substantial, and unanticipated change of circumstances. (2) The Office of Child Support may independently file a motion to modify child support or change payee if providing services under Title IV-D of the Social Security Act, if a party is or will be incarcerated for more than 90 days, if the family has reunited or is living together, if the child is no longer living with the payee, or if a party receives means-tested benefits.
