Are the Guidelines always followed exactly? Do they apply in every
situation?
No.
The Child Support Guidelines don't apply when
- there
is a case of "undue hardship" (the
paying parent convinces the judge he or she would suffer undue
hardship by paying what the Guidelines require),
- one
spouse earns over $150,000 a year, or
- the
child for whom support is being paid is over the age of majority.
