Your obligations for child support vary depending on the number of qualifying children the child maitenance is for, the non-resident parent's net income and the number of children living with the non-resident parent. Basic rate is non-resident parents with a net weekly income of more than £200 a week will only pay a basic rate. Tax credits and occupational pensions can also count towards weekly income.
