West Virginia Child Support laws adopt the income shares model on adjusted gross income to calculate the child support amount.
- The parents of a child, even if unmarried are required to provide child support until the child turns eighteen or until a later stage in the case of mentally or physically disabled child.
- The non-custodial parent will provide payments to the custodial parent, which is assumed to be directly spent on the child.
- The support amount will increase or decrease based on the number of children, financial strength of the parents and financial sources of the child.
