One parent will be deemed to have primary physical custody of the children, and will be entitled to the payment of child support. Unless the court directs a 'deviation' from the 'presumptive' amount under the Child Support Standards Act, then the child support will be the full amount based upon the non-custodial parent's income, applying the statutory proportional calculations.
