NON-GUIDELINE CHILD SUPPORT FINDINGS ATTACHMENT
Family Code, § 4056
FL-342(A)
PETITIONER:
RESPONDENT:
OTHER PARENT/PARTY:
CASE NUMBER:
NON-GUIDELINE CHILD SUPPORT FINDINGS ATTACHMENT
Attachment to Child Support Information and Order Attachment (form FL-342)
Other (specify):  
The court makes the following findings required by Family Code sections 4056, 4057, and 4065:
STIPULATION TO NON-GUIDELINE ORDER
1. The child support agreed to by the parties is below or above the statewide child support guideline.  
The amount of support that would have been ordered under the guideline formula is: $  per month. 
The parties have been fully informed of their rights concerning child support. Neither party is acting out of duress or coercion. 
Neither party is receiving public assistance and no application for public assistance is pending. The needs of the children will 
be adequately met by this agreed-upon amount of child support. If the order is below the guideline, no change of 
circumstances will be required to modify this order. If the order is above the guideline, a change of circumstances will be 
required to modify this order.
OTHER REBUTTAL FACTORS
2. Support calculation 
a. The guideline amount of child support calculated is: $
per month payable by petitioner respondent other parent/party
b. The court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that rebuttal factors exist. The rebuttal factors result in an
increase decrease in child support. The revised amount of support is: $  per month.
c. The court finds the child support amount revised by these factors to be in the best interest of the children and that 
application of the formula would be unjust or inappropriate in this case under Family Code section 4057(b).
These changes remain in effect until (date): until further order
d. The factors are:
(1) The sale of the family residence is deferred under Family Code section 3800, and the rental value of the 
family residence in which the children reside exceeds the mortgage payments, homeowners insurance, and 
property taxes by: $  per month.
(2) The parent ordered to pay support has extraordinarily high income, and the amount determined under the 
guideline would exceed the needs of the children. 
(3) The parent ordered to pay support person ordered to receive support is not contributing to
the needs of the children at a level commensurate with that party's custodial time.
(4) After application of the low-income adjustment, guideline child support would be greater than 50 percent of the 
net disposable income of the parent ordered to pay support.
(5) Special circumstances exist in this case. The special circumstances are:
(a) The parents have different time-sharing arrangements for different children.
(b) The parents have substantially equal custody of the children and one parent has a much lower or  
higher percentage of income used for housing than the other parent. 
(c) A child has special medical or other needs that require support greater than the formula amount. 
These needs are (specify):
 
(d) Other (specify):
