Bill > SB0242

This bill amends provisions related to child support. The key changes include: - Establishing a new base combined child support obligation table to be used for child support orders entered on or after January 1, 2023, and modifying the existing low income table to apply to the same time period. - Allowing the juvenile court to refer a child support case to the Office of Recovery Services to determine the support obligation amount under the Utah Child Support Act, and providing timelines and penalties for the parents to contact the office. - Clarifying that the court may not order an individual to pay child support if their only income is a government-issued disability benefit related to their own disability, and requiring the office to waive the child support obligation in certain low-income cases. - Making various other technical and clarifying changes to the child support statutes.
