QUESTION
Does employee contribution to Health Insurance affect the portion to be placed in the Child Support Worksheet?
Asked on Nov 28th, 2012 on Child Support - Colorado
More details to this question:
I have health insurance through my employer. They pay a portion of the Health Insurance at X dollars a month. If I insure just me, I pay X dollars per month from my paycheck. If I insure me and my children through this plan, I pay more from my paycheck. Is the kids portion the difference between what I pay for myself, versus what I pay for kids and I. And, does my employers contribution to the insurance factor in.

The child's portion that you pay should go on the child support worksheet. The kids portion is the difference you'd pay just for yourself and for yourself plus kids. Your employer's contribution does not count. Hope this helps.
