For everyone

  1. Child of other relationship. When alternating the exemption of a child of another relationship, in the years when the party to the case is not claiming the child, the text on the relevant reports now correctly describe the parent claiming the exemption as the child’s “other parent.”

  2. Equity in property for which the party is a renter. It was possible to get a real estate property to a situation in which it was marked as a tenant property but also had equity entered for it. That equity is no longer being carried to the property division worksheet.

State specific

Connecticut

  • Worksheet labels. In the top right corner of the guideline worksheet, in cases of shared and split custody, we now show “2 / Taylor 1/Blake (for example), not “2 /Mother 1/Father.”

Minnesota

  • Arrears interest. On the screen for Minnesota interest rates on arrears, we have added a note explaining that Minnesota has stopped charging interest on child support arrears.
  • Equal overnights. In a situation in which there are exactly equal numbers of overnights, the number of children that appears on the guideline worksheet is now always correct.

  • Child Support What If. On the Child Support What If screen, when you click the link at the top of a column to print the guideline worksheet, we are now showing and printing the current guideline worksheet.

Pennsylvania

  • APL and Health Insurance. In a case where there are no children and we are calculating alimony pendente lite (APL), and both parties pay for health insurance, we now assume that each party is paying for their own health insurance, and there is no entry for health insurance on the APL portion of the Child Support Guideline Worksheet.

Texas

  • Child Support. The monthly income cap increased from $9,200 to $11,700, effective September 1, 2025. This is an adjustment that is made every 6-years. This raises every maximum presumptive amount for higher earners. The presumptive amount for 1 child goes from $1,840 to $2,340 per month; for 2 children, it goes from $2,300 to $2,925, and so on.

For everyone

1. Multi-factor authentication (MFA). In the cloud, you now have the option to change your method of multi-factor authentication. That is, if you are having the two-factor code being sent to your phone, you can now have it sent to your email and vice versa. To make the change, click Settings along the left and then Change MFA Settings.

If you should want to remove multi-factor authentication, that can be done through Account Manager. The primary user on the account can access Account Manager by clicking the account icon in the top right corner. The billing administrator or system administrator can access Account Manager by logging in. Once they are in Account Manager, they would click the Settings tile to change MFA availability.

2. Real Estate sales. If parties are filing jointly in the year of sale, then, on the Sale of Real Estate report, the figure for estimated state tax will now use the marginal state tax rate for the parties as joint filers.

Budget Report header. The Budget Report header now mentions that child support is included only if this particular case has child support. Similarly, the Budget Report header mentions that spousal support is included only if this particular case has spousal support. Previously, the header mentioned both child support and spousal support if the option to include both in the report was selected, regardless of whether they were present in the case.

  • Child Support Guidelines. We have incorporated the option to use the new child support guidelines, which at this writing have not yet been fully enacted into law. If the start year is after 2026, shared parenting applies when both parties have 110 or more overnights, and presumptive minimum child support of $40 per child applies when the obligor’s income is 100% or less of the federal poverty guideline. These changes anticipate that SB 3524 will become law in August 2026, with an effective date of January 1, 2027.
