Alimony & Custody Schedules
A handful of states publish a spousal-support formula; most list statutory factors instead, and we show which is which rather than inventing a number. The custody planner builds standard schedules, counts overnights, and hands that percentage to your state’s support calculator.
Alimony & Spousal Support by State
Only a handful of states publish a formula for spousal support. Some cap the amount without publishing a formula, and most publish a factor checklist and no number at all. Pick your state to see which of the three it is, run whatever math it does publish, and read the factors a court actually weighs.

Custody Schedule Planner
Build a parenting schedule from the standard rotations courts see most — 2-2-3, 2-2-5-5, 3-4-4-3, week-on-week-off, or every other weekend — then count the overnights exactly. The percentage carries straight into your state’s child support calculator, and the calendar exports and prints.

What each state publishes about the amount of spousal support
Whether a state computes a guideline amount, caps it without publishing a formula, or publishes only a list of factors.
- Statutory formula — a guideline amount is computed
- No formula, but the statute CAPS the amount
- Statutory factors only — no number published
- Not verified yet — not a finding about the state
