If these arent what you are looking for then I suggest these, as always, seek advice from an attorney in your state or country. They best know how to answer your questions.
If you are still in doubt then you can check out your states Federal Guidelines for Child support which should be in your State's Laws online, as in here in Kentucky you can find them by looking up the Kentucky State Statutes
