CHOOSE BELOW THE CHILD SUPPORT WORKSHEET THAT WORKS BEST FOR YOU.
All versions of the Electronic Worksheets, web based and Excel, are available for use. The web based electronic, Excel electronic, and paper and pencil versions available to you here are the most current versions and are periodically updated as design enhancements are completed. You should periodically visit this site to check for an updated version of the Excel worksheet to download.
Please click on a button or icon below to access the version or form (Judges’, Practitioners’, Guided (question driven), downloadable Excel, or paper and pencil version of the calculator tools) of your choice. You must have Microsoft Excel 2003 or later to access the downloadable Excel worksheet.
The downloadable calculator is a Microsoft Excel file that includes printable forms with built-in formulas. It is intended for use where there is no immediate internet access, as with other versions that require the use of the internet. However, this file must be accessed via the internet one time and saved to a hard drive, jump drive, disk or CD-ROM where it can then be transported to any other computer with Microsoft Excel 2003 or newer.
This is an interactive tool designed for those who have little experience in calculating one's child support obligation under the Georgia Child Support Guidelines. You will be asked a series of questions, (for example about the income of each parent and child rearing expenses) and this calculator will determine the child support obligation based on your answers. Once all of the questions are answered, you can print out a completely filled out worksheet which is ready to submit with your legal pleadings to the clerk of court. After the case has been filed, and any updated information is added to the worksheet through this Guided version, you will be given the option to submit the information directly to the judge. Be sure to include the civil action number as assigned by the Clerk prior to submitting the worksheet to the judge. Also, do not forget to print out copies of your completed worksheet before submitting it to the court.
This is an interactive tool designed for the judges to calculate the parties' child support obligation. This unguided version is similar to the Practitioner's Version but has several overwrite features, especially regarding discretionary issues. The judges will need an individualized User Identification Number and password to sign onto this version. Once signed in, the court can pull up the parties submitted electronic worksheet and schedules by the Civil Action Number or unique Confirmation Number.
This is an interactive tool designed for attorneys, mediators, or others experienced in calculating a child support obligation. This unguided version of the worksheet is far less instructive than the Electronic Guided version; however, it too can be used simply to calculate the obligation. Just as if with the Electronic Guided Version, you can submit the completed worksheet directly to the court (but this should not be confused with filing or answering a petition with the court clerk's office). You will need a civil action number prior to submitting it directly to the court. Also, please ensure that you print out the finished worksheet and schedules prior to submitting it to the court.
The downloadable paper and pencil version of the calculator is designed for anyone who wants to calculate a child support obligation using paper forms and with the help of a hand-held calculator. The forms are in a PDF format when downloaded and include the worksheet and all schedules. This version is not interactive and will not provide any automated calculations. All calculations on this version must be entered by the person using the forms. Instructions are provided on each line, but additional instructions are also available for download and may be found by clicking the link on this page titled “Training Materials”. Once on that page, look for the section entitled “Manual Instructions for Use with Downloadable PDF Child Support Worksheet and Schedules.” Click any link to view or print the instructions. Remember to make a copy of your completed worksheet and all schedules prior to submitting them to the court. Coming Soon! An EZ form found in the Pencil and Paper format!
